BOARD OF SETECTMEN

ì920 in Sudbury wos much like ony otheryeor. Stotisticolly the Town grew 4.8% fromì3,350 populotion to 14,000, the overogeoge of the Sudbury resident in ì970 wos22 yeors, 57 died during the yeor ondb¡rths occounted for lóó. So much for stotis-tics however becouse Sudbury ond its resi-dents never were ond ore nol now stotistics.The town in its own individuolistic woy hodo yeor of growth ond first time occurrences.New ideos ond deportures on new policieswere pioneered ond os o result the everchonging foce of Town Government is chong-ing ogoin. ln the yeor of Ecology ond Lowond Order mony of the outstonding eventswere not inspired by these lhemes but rolherby sincere efforts to serve the town ond itspeople.

The Selectmen followed their usuol sched-ule ond hod 48 meelings during the yeor.Mony conferenceswith other committees ondBoords were held ond meetings were olsoscheduled with Stote ogencies such os theDeportment of Public Works ond the Deport-ment of Public Utilities.

POUCE

During lhe post yeor the burden on ourpolicemen hos increosed os in oll Towns.

The growth of the Town coupled with thegrowth of permissiveness ond o weokeningof our troditionol stondords of respect forthe low hove combined to produce o grow-ing pottern of property obuses, petty theftond burglory. Sudbury is not exempt fromthe drug culture either ond our police orerequired to spend more time ond effort onthis insidious problem. Cooperotion of theschool outhorities, both Lincoln-SudburyRegionol High School ond the Sudbury Pub-lic Schools, hos been outstonding ond withlhe ossislonce of the citizens ond the DrugAction Committee much progress hos beenmode to stem the growth of th¡s problem.Our troffic problems hove increosed moni-fold ond this yeor we were fortunote tohove the supporl of the monogement of ourmoior industriol plont Roytheon in opprooch-ing the DPW for some relief of this prob-lem. ln coniunction with Chief McGovern,plons were worked out for widening ondimproving Route 20 in certoin key oreos soos to reduce congeslion ond speed the flowduring peok troffic hours. Proposols wereolso forworded for troffic lights ot UnionAve. ond Route 20 ond of Union Avenueond Concord Rood. New plons hove olsobeen worked out for yext yeor to relieveour police from mony routine duties so os

to ollow them to spend o much greoterproportion of their lime in the preventionond deterrol of crime.

FIRE

The Sudbury Fire Deporlment hos thedistinction of not hoving hod o fotol fire inover 4 yeors, 1970 wos no exception tothis proud record ond the Boord of Selecl-men wish to recognize ond commend FireChief Al St.Germoin his coptoins, ond menfor their contributions to this effort. Thoughdisoppointed ot Town Meeling in their ef-

forts to obtoin o new fire heodquorters toimprove conditions for our firemen, theSelectmen will continue to strive in the dir-ection of improving condilions coupled withincreosed fire protection for the town. Dur-ing the yeor on ogreement wos reoched toprovide fire protection to the southern por-tion of Concord from our North Stotion. This

provides the Concord residents of the oreoo much fosler first coll service ond it pro-vides Sudbury with o monetory return ondincreosed coveroge for our Northern resi-d en ts.

FIRE CHTEF ALBERT SL GERMAIN performsvaríed duties: Here he fronsfers o fire olormbox lo o utility pole when the previous one

(teft) wos splinfered by on oulomobile occí-

denl.

The Selectmen ore considering the pur-chose of on ombulonce which would beoperoted by the Fire Deportment. The ob-

iect of this ¡s twofold, to provide o much

needed service in o growing town ond totoke the burden of providing this servicefrom the olreody overburdened Police De-

porlment who during ì970 hod 296 emer-gency runs to hospitols.

ENGINEERING

The engineering deportment hod o verybusy yeor with the loyout of Prott's Mill

Rood ond mony engineering proiects oroundtown. The Speciol Town meeling opprovedfunds to stort on Aeriol Survey in the springoÍ l97l so thotwe con insure complete ond

foir property ossessment, esloblish upstreomflood ploins to protect our wotersheds, ond

better plon the use of Town Lond.

The bounds were perombuloted with ourneighbors from Moynord, Hudson, Stow,

Acton, Morlborough, Frominghom, Woy-lond, ond Concord ond orrongements hovebeen mode by the Town Engineer to re-quisition ond reploce missing boundsmo rkers.

DOG OFFICER

Our ogreement with lhe Buddy Dog So-

ciely to core for stroy dogs will expire withlhe expirotion of their permit to operote in

the present locolion. Th¡s hos been o verysotisfoctory ond profiloble orrongement forthe Town, ond in the best interesl of theTown we wish to continue it. For this pur-pose the Selectmen ore requesting fundsfrom the Town meeting to construct o kennelot Sond Hill wh¡ch will be leosed to theBuddy Dog Society. Our Dog Officer Mr.Froncis White hos performed th¡s office inconiunction with o number of other Town

Offices in on exemplory monner ond weore exponding h¡s office to cover otheroreos of Town Government in ì97 I .

INDUSTRIAT DEVETOPMENT

1970 hos been o very good Yeor forindustriol development within the Town. The

industriol oreo odiocenl to the new in-

dustriol pork hos hod consideroble expon-

sion ond mony new ond desiroble industries

hove locoted within this oreo. The Select-men ond the Town were soddened by thedeoth of one of the stolwort members ofthis Boord since its inception. Abel Cuttingo notive son of Sudbury ond octive through-out his life on vorious Town committees ondBoords wos struck suddenly in October 1970.

INTERTOWN COOPERATION

The Selectmen porticipoted with neighbor-ing towns in mony committees ond Boordsoctive in promoting the common good. Typ-icol of lhese ore the Sub Region lntertownLioison Committee (SILC) ond MAPC. lnoddition to the Selectmen from the Townsof Sudbury, Woylond ond Weston, ond of-ficiols of the City of Morlborough, Repre-sentotive Ann Gonnett ond Senolor WilliomRondoll met with Commissioner Ribbs of theDPW to discuss the problems of Route 20,the locotion of Route 290 ond to enlist theoid of the DPW in solving some of ourimmediote ond pressing tronsportotionproblems.

LEGAT

We would like to commend our TownCounsel Dovid Lee Turner for his octiveporticipotion ond odvice. We ore not theleost suit-conscious town in the Stote, ondin representing us in our mony ond voriedlegol problems Dove hos olwoys mointoinedhis composure ond good humor.

TOWN FATHERS' FORUM

Our Town Fothers' Forum since its incep-tion four yeors ogo hos grown in populorityond ottendonce. This yeor we hove tried tohove o guest of eoch Forum who gives obrief presentotion. The highlight of theForum in 1970 wos o visit by Senotor Ed-word Kennedy in September. Other speok-ers during the yeor were Stote Represen-lotive Ann Gonnett, Williom Toomey, Choir-mon of the Boord of ,Assessors; Horry Loftus,Commissioner of Public Works from Morl-borough ond mony others.

OVERHEAD POWER TINES

The controversy obout overheod powerlines which hos roged now for ten yeorswos finolly settled in ì920. Boston Edisonvery grocefully occeded to the request ofthe Towns ond the motter is now post his-tory. Of more immediote interest is thefoct thot o new underground power linethrough Sudbury will be constructed byBoston Edison. This line will be in lieu ofthot proposed up the Sudbury River Volleymony yeors ogo, ond it will follow the pub-lic woys in the Town.

At the Annuol Meeting of the Mossochu-selts Selectmen's Associotion, SudburySelectmen osked support for legislotionwh¡ch would restrict the use of overheodlines within o specified rod¡us of Town ondcity centers depending on populotion. Theresolution wos possed by o moiority of theSelectmen, reflecting the ever increosingconcern of Town officiols throughout the Com-monweolth with overheod power-line pol-lu tion.

POU.UTTON & ECOTOGY

ln the oge of Aquorius, Sudbury hos beenvitolly concerned with the problems of theenvironment. We were disoppointed thisSpring to be informed thot our opplicotionfor o HUD interest-free loon for o sewogestudy hod been turned down becouse oflock of Federol funds. The new sonitorylondfill ot Sond Hill slorted operotion onschedule ond thonks to lhe efforts of theHighwoy Commission is o model ofhowsucho proiect should be run. On the olher endof the environmenlol problem, the Select-men become very concerned obout the pol-lution of Hop Brook from the Morlboro sew-oge treotment plont.

REPORT OF THE

This yeor, while the functioning of lheopen town meeting wos generolly good,three problems impoired its most success-ful operotion.

The first wos the written bollot. Philosophi-colly, o secrel bollot of on open town meet-ing is difficult to iustify - one of the incidentsof this form of government is stonding upto be counted. Procticolly speoking, thewritten bollot is impossible to odministerboth efficiently ond with odequote sofe-guords ogoinst people voting twice. lt is

impossible to set up polls ond check-in sto-tions in the holl. At this yeor's speciol townmeeting, o hostily-devised method of guord-ing ogoinst double voting proved inefficientond confusing. Fortunotely, we ore offl¡ctedwith written bollots only seldom; I hopethot in the future, it will be even moreseldom.

I hove been told severol times of dis-sotisfoction with premoture moving of thequestion. This ¡s o touchy problem. On theone hond, o motion to cut off debole ondvote immediotely con poss only by o two-thirds vote, ond if two-th¡rds of those pres-ent feel thot lhey hove heord enough ondwont to resolve the question, lhey shouldhove their woy; if more thon one-thirdstill wont to debote, they con defeot themotion, ond on severol occosions this postyeor, thot hos hoppened. On the otherhond, the glory of th¡s form of governmentis open debote, the debote of public issuesshould not be cul off before oll sides hovebeen heord. Severol solutions hove beenproposed, ond oll of lhem, including myown ideos on the subiect, roise os monyproblems os they solve. I om still open tosuggestions, ond lhope lhol somewherethere is on onswer. So for, it hos noto ppeo red.

The lost problem I would like to roise is

thot of reconsiderotion. lt seems strongeto me thot on issue con be deboted ondvoted, ond lhen, on the following night,when lhe town thinks thot ot long lost ilhos resolved one of its problems (ond on

MODERATOR

odmittedly few people hove heord of whotis coming), one person con seek lo hove us

do it oll over ogoin. A bylow possed thisyeor set up new ground rules for recon-siderotion, but did nothing to stop lhe proc-tice. There must be more finol¡ty thon thisto the settlement of public issues.

On the positive side, I would like to re-peot something soid of one of our meetingsthis yeor by one voler during the debote:"We ore octing like o legisloture." This conbe token two woys, but in thot speoker'scontext, it meont thot we ore toking pro-posols from lhe executive bronch of govern-ment ot less lhon foce volue, finding de-fects, proposing curotive omendments, ondin oppropriote coses, sending the proposolsbock to the executive for more study. This

is os it should be; it shows on encourogingvitolity to this open town meeting form ofgovern ment.

Lost yeor, I wrote of being plogued withresignotions by committee members in mid-term, porticulorly the Finonce Committee.As of this writing, this hos been solved, ondmembership on committees hos been sto-b¡l¡zed. This is written before the oll-nightFinonce Committee budget heorings, ondthe effect of those on the Committee's mem-bershlp hos yet to be seen. Membership onthe Finonce Commiltee is enormously time-consuming, ond resignotions must be under-stood in thot light. lts members deservethe thonks of the lown for the time they orewilling to devote ond continue devoting toits work.

For onother yeor, we in Sudbury hovemode volunteer government work; the ques-tion olwoys orises whether o form of gov-ernment devised in the seventeenth centuryis odequote to the problems of the twentieth,with ils runqwoy inflotion, youth thot, forgood or ill, refuses to lhink the woy wedo, ond so on ond on. The onswer con befound ony night of the week in ony of holf-o-dozen public buildings, ond o few nightso yeor ot the hlgh school ouditorium-wemoke it work.

Sincerely yours,

Fronk R. ShermonModerotor

GOODNOW TIBRARY REPORT

The Goodnow Librory report this yeorwill be d¡vided into two ports: o lributeond routine business.

After neorly thirly-five yeors of servicelo the Town of Sudbury, El¡zobeth Atkinsonretired from her position of heod librorionol Goodnow Librory. She served her townwell, ond her presence ond friendly monnerwill long be missed ot Goodnow. Elizobethwotched the librory grow from o smoll, cozy,inlimole operolion to on operotion servicingo typicol Boston suburb of 13,000 populo-lion. She olwoys kept her sense of humorond performed her duties with pleosing thecustomer in mind.

Her loles of humorous ond interestingevents ot the librory could fill o book. lnfoct, severol of the trustees who hove beentreoled to these loles hove tried to urge herto write them down.

Elizobeth, during winter months, could beseen shovelling the snow of the wolks ondsteps. Orrbundled up in the librory neoron electric heoter becouse the oil burner re-fused to work. Or corrying in wood to stokethe fire in the reoding room. She even,one doy right ofter o blizzord, put on snowshoes ond troveled to Goodnow to be sureoll wos well.

Elizobeth is on ordent sports fonr hockeyond boseboll, in porticulor. When the Bruinswon the Stonley Cup in 1970, she wos otlhe celebrotion porode. She loves to gordenond is o greot horse ond dog lover. Herdoys in retirement ore bound to be full withher mony inlerests.

The Trustees once more wish to recordtheir heorffelt grotilude for oll the yeorsElizobeth hos given to her town. They olsowish her lo know how much she is missed,but how hoppy they ore thol she moy enioyyeors filled with her speciol pleosures.

The librory conducted business os usuolin 1970. The circulolion figures for the yeorwere 120,998. The current number of bookborrowers ¡s 9ó38. The librory now employso professionol librorion, five full-t¡me ossisl-onts ond two port-time workers. The libroryis open sixty hours o week.

The trustees, upon Miss Atkinson's retire-ment, were fortunote to hire Mrs. Kothryn

Wendelowski, o groduote of S¡mmons Col-lege, with experience in the librories ofNorwood, Moss., Willimontic, Conn. ond SonDiego, Colifornio. She begon her employ-ment June l, 1970.

As for functions, of course the most excit-ing one wos held ot Woyside lnn to honorthe retiremenl of Miss Atkinson. Town offic-iols ond friends oltended this golo offoir tosoy Thonk you! Other functions otGoodhowincluded o sherry hour to exploin the newlibrory odd ition; o summer reod ing pro-grom for the children sponsored by theFriends of the Librory, ond summer storyhours for oges 4 - 7.

Agoin the gorden clubs brightened thelibrory with lovely ond voried orronge-ments. Severol ortisls contributed theirworks in exhib¡tions for the potrons to enioy.ln porticulor, there were works by E. LourieLoftus, known for her portroits, ond on ex-h¡bit of ocrylic pointings done by Mrs. Moles.

As hos been the cose for the post fewyeors, the trustees devoled most of theirtime on the building plons. At the AnnuolTown Meeling they were voled $10,000 forfurther plonning money. ln July of this yeorthe librory received o federol gronl of$50,000 for the odd¡lion. This prompted thetrustees to submit on orlicle for o specioltown meeting. ln Oclober the trustees were

voted $2ó8,000 to build on odd¡tion. Ofcourse, every trustee wos ecstotic - of lostthey could get on with it ond by foll ofì971, hopefully, begin to offer o fine ondexponded librory progrom much needed in

Sudb u ry.

Therefore, the thonk yous this yeor oremony: to our deor friend Elizobeth Atkin-son, to Kothryn Wendelowski ond her finesloff, to our mony potrons, ond to the towns-people for soying "yet" to o new oddition.

MODERATE INCOMEHOUSING COMMITTEE

During its second yeor of operolion, theModerole lncome Housing Committee hoscontinued lo study the need for ond supplyof moderole income housing in Sudbury,with o view loword moving into oction int97 t-72.

As our first item of business this yeor wecompleted our study of the cost of housingond the demond for moderote income hous-ing by people presently working in Sudbury.

The cost of housing wos determined overthe time period 1962 to l9ó9 f rom therecords of reol estote tronsoctions. The

medion volue of oll lronsoctions went from$24,000 in 1962 to $43,000 in ì9ó9. The

overoge price went from $24,500 to

$49,500 over the some time spon. Most ofthe dromotic rise hos token ploce in thelost two lo three yeors; the medion ondoveroge in ì9óó were $22,000 ond $30,000respectively. Cleorly, the supply of ovoil-oble homes in Sudbury suitoble for o fomilyof moderote meons is ropidly becoming o

vonishing percentoge of the totol supply.

The demond for moderote income housingby people presently working in Sudburywos ossessed by the use of questionnoireswhich were sent lo oll town employees (in-cluding school teochers) ond to businesses.For the purpose of the sludy, o lotolfomilyincome of under $ 10,000 is def¡ned os

moderote. The relurn of the questionnoiresby the town employees wos grotifying. Outof o tolol of 350, 331 relurns were received.One-hundred-eleven indicoted thot they livein Sudbury. Of the 220 who do nol, 109

indicoted thot they consider housing omoior foctor in their inobility to live inSudbury. Sixty-nine percent of those livingin Sudbury ore morried with lheir spouseworking, os compored with thirly-three per-cent of those living elsewhere.

Of opproximotely I 70 surveyssenttoSud-bury business firms, 52 were returned.Forty-three of these were from firms em-ploying one or more persons who eornless thon $ì0,000. The totol number of such

employees is 343. Of lhese, 230 (67%) donot live in Sudbury. Seventy percent of the

firms hove o moiority of employees notliving in Sudbury. Twenty-seven percent ofthe businesses stoted lhot they hod hiringproblems becouse of housing costs.

The results of our work to dote show q

cleor need for moderote income housingin Sudbury, especiolly to meet the needsof town employees. Although Sudbury hosseen continuol octivity on the port of homebuilders, the presenl morket fovors housingwhose cost is greoter thon people of mod-erote meons ore oble to poy. We presentlyhove mony people working in Sudbury whowish to live here but connot becouse ofthe high cost of ovoiloble homes.

The elderly ore onother group of citizenswhom mony towns hove found ore unobleto obtoin odequote housing within theirmeons. Of our neighboring towns, Concord,Frominghom, Morlborough ond Moynordhove olreody provided for housing meetinglhe needs of the elderly. Woylond ondActon hove recently opproved the estobl¡sh-ment of housing outhorities to provide hous-ing for the elderly. Our commitlee hosmoved to determine the housing needsof th¡s importont segment of our populo-tion. For this purpose o lelter ond surveyform hove been sent to every person inSudbury ó0 yeors old ond over. As of thedote of submission of this reporl the returnsore iust being received. lf the resulls con-firm the need, we will prepore for thespring town meeting on orticle to estoblisho Housing Authority, os required for mostfederol ond stote progroms providing os-

sistonce for housing for the elderly.

We ore continuing our study of lhe meonsto provide moderote income housing. Al-though we recognize the need for olleviot-ing the problem of the urbon concentrotionof low income fomilies, we see no procticolmeons of effective oction here of present.Action in this oreo must be coordinoled ono regionol bosis ond will require new de-velopments in tronsportotion or in the dis-persol of ¡obs. We hope to moke specificrecommendotions for moderote incomehousing in 197l-72. W e hove storted o sur-

Sudbury citizens con toke immense pridein the finol results of o ten yeor long strug-gle to prevent Boston Ed ison f rom con-structing o overheod lronsmission linethrough the Sudbury River Volley. This linehos been totolly ond permonently obon-doned, o line whose construction wouldhove ruined the beouty of this lovely volleyforever. Townspeople hove mointoined oninterest in opposing this overheod construc-tion, both finonciolly ond otherwise, sincethe line wos originolly proposed in l9ó0,ond this committee is glod to report thesuccess of these efforts.

Expressed severol times over the postyeors hos been the willingness of the townto ossist the Edison Co. in putting this lineunderground through the streets of thetown. We ore delighted to report thot lhisfoll Edison onnounced plons to instoll twoI l5 KV tronsmission lines olong our publicwoys. This line will run from the Sudburysub-stotion to o new sub-stotion to be builtin Moynord, some ó.7 miles, We urge townofficiols ond boords to work closely ondcooperotively with the utility compony.

The Power ond Light Committee's primoryobiective hos been to prevent the con-slruction of the overheod tronsmission lineson 90 foot wooden H-fromes through theSudbury River Volley ond the Sudburycountryside, but o further concern hos beenwith Edison's plon to constructonother trons-mission line on its existing right of woyfrom Medwoy to ils sub-stotion in SouthSudbury. Of greot interest wos the foct thotin the end lhese two issues were resolvedof the some time.

This Medwoy high tension line wos to becorried on steel lowers up to ìó0 feet high.The Selectmen ond the Power ond LightCommittee recognized thot this line wosneeded to toke core of the growing demondfor power throughout Edison's territory, butwere strongly opposed to those steel towersrising for obove the wooden H-fromescorry-ing the existing tronsmission lines. The Com-mittee ond the Selectmen, with the coopero-

POWER AND TIGHT COMMITTEE

tion of the Selectmen of Woylond, Froming-hom ond Sherborn, odvocoted the under-grounding of the proposed line ot heoringsbefore the Deportment of Public Util¡t¡esond the Supreme Judiciol Court of Mosso-chusetts. However, it become evident thotbecouse of lock of technicol reseorch under-grounding such o long high voltoge lineis improcticol ot this time.

At this point efforts of the four townshod to be directed toword getting on ogree-ment for on overheod line constructed inthe leost obiectionoble monner.

An ogreement wos reoched between Edi-son ond the four towns which provides,omong other things, thot Edison will con-struct o single circuit 230 KV line fromlhe Frominghom-Notick town line to theSudbury sub-stotion erected on wooden H-fromes similor to those presently locotedon the right of woy (except on steel towersot the crossings of Londhom Brook ond theSudbury River) wh¡ch H-fromes sholl bekept ot heights os low os reosonobly possi-ble. lt wos olso ogreed thot the Componywill cooperote with the tree wordens of thefour towns in screening the lines of slreetcrossings ond will undertoke o three yeorprogrom of removol, relocotion or otherchonges of some of the 13.8 KV lines pres-ently locoted on the right of woy whichwill lessen oesthetic obiections to the useof port of the woy. Mosl importont to Sud-bury residents, Edison ogreed not to con-struct the tronsmission focilit¡es known qs

lhe Sudbury Volley line. We don't hove tobe uglyl

It is expected thot the future oclivities ofthe Power ond Light Committee will includecooperotion with other lowns to obtoin legis-lotion to prevent the proliferotion of over-heod tronsmission lines porticulorly ocrossconservotion lond, to obtoin the under-grounding of existing distribulion lines, por-ticulorly oround the Common, ond in gen-erol to see thot future Edison constructionin Sudbury sholl be os unobiectionoble ospossible.

Troff¡c continues to be o moior problem,ond os no chonges hove been mode in onyof our bod intersections during the yeorthe problem is more severe thon lost yeor,due to the steodily increosing troffic lood.

Also, due to the lock of lighting ot theintersections where our men usuolly dotroffic duty we connot ollow them to workthese spots ofter dork, therefore occqsion-olly there ore deloys in troffic movement.

I hove strongly odvised thot on ombul-once be purchosed for the tronsport ofemergency coses such os persons iniuredin outo occidenls, heorl ottocks ond othertypes of emergencies. This would rel¡evethe Police Deportmenl of the duty of per-forming this necessocy. ond vitol function.

There were no significont problems dur-ing 1970 lhot require coveroge.

The most importonl ospect of public heolththot requires constont ottention is robies.This dreoded diseose is o potentiol hozordin this stote becouse of the close proximityof the diseose in our border ond neorbystotes. However, if the usuol link befweenwild onimols ond mon is broken ond keptthot woy, wide exposure lo the diseose conbe kept oT o minimum. The usuol link, ofcourse, is the dog.

The responsibility of the town populocelies moinly in two oreos with regord to rob-ies control. The first is to comply wilh ourstote low ond to hove your dog voccinoledfor robies every two yeors.

these scheduled meetings, indiv¡duol Boordmembers ottended o lorge number of meet-ings with other Town Committees ondBoords. The work lood hos been so heovyond demonding thot the Boord voted tohold two off¡ciol meetings eoch month in-

steod of the one required by low.

A. CONTINUING PROBLEMS AND PRO-

GRAMS

l. lmmunizolion Progroms. There wos

on increose in the number of im-munizotion clinics held during 1970over l9ó9. This increose wos duein moior porl to concentrotion onprotection ogoinst Germon Meosles.The Boord continued its sponsorshipof tuberculosis screening ond hosvoted to purchose o HEAF gun ondcorlridges for use in this Progromnext yeor.

2. Robies Conlrol. For the twelfth con-secutive yeor o robies voccinotionclinic wos held ot which 394 dogswere inoculoted.

3. Horses ond Stobles. Comploínts ondinvestigotions in this oreo continueto consume on inordinote omountthe Boord's time ond effort. Duringthe yeor, lhe Boord revised its stobleregulotions ond is currently con-sidering further revisions.

4. Pollution Control. All members ofthe Boord hove high interesl in ollospects of pollution control. Withthe deloy in implementotion of Stoteregulotions concerning oir pollulion,lhe Boord took o unonimous stondin fovor of not ollowing ony openburning in the Town.

Pollulion of Town woterwoys bysewoge effluent from the Morlborotreotment plont continues unoboled.Members of the Boord visited Morl-

boro's experimentol proiect focusedon tertiory sewoge treotment in or-der to ossess its future potentiol forreduclion of woterwoy pollution. Ourconcern for obotement of this nui-sonce will continue to be vigorous.

Sonitory Londfills ond Dumps. Dur-ing the yeor three different oreoswere being used for gorboge ondrubbish or brush ond stump disposol.The Sond Hill disposol oreo, pur-chosed by vote of the Town in l9ó9,wos officiolly opened in July, ì970.Prior to the opening, the Boord ofHeolth odopted rules ond regulo-tions for the operotion ond super-vision of the londfill, ofter extensivediscussions with the Highwoy Com-mission, Boord of Selectmen, TownEngineer, ond members of conser-votion groups. The Boord is keepingclose surveillonce over this opero-lion during the initiol phoses of de-velopment. We hove met on loco-tion recenlly wilh the londfill oper-otors, members of the HighwoyCommission ond consultonts fromthe Stote Deportment of PublicHeolth, to develop o long-rongeworking plon for optimol utilizotionof the entire Sond Hill oreo.

The former londf¡ll, operoted byMr. ,Alton Clork, wos closed in Julyond since lhen, the Boord hos beenworking with Mr. Clork to effect qn

CURRENT AND FUTURE NEEDS

l. Direclor of Heolth. After olmostthree yeors of seorching for o well-quolified condidote, we hove finollysucceeded in filling this importontfull-time position. Mr. Arthur Gor-don, formerly on the stoff of theP¡ttsfield (Moss.) Heo lth Depo rtment,ioined us on November 23, lg7O.There is o lorge bocklog of work forhim to tockle. After he hos becomeoriented to Sudbury ond its heolthprogroms ond problems, the Boordshould be oble, for the first time, todevote concentroted blocks of t¡meto the formulotion of much-neededpolicies ond to long-ronge progromdevelopm ent.

2. Regionol Plonning. During lglO ef-forts in developing reg ionol op-prooches to heolth plonning wereminimol os compored with lost yeor.The SPHNA discussions with thecounterport ogency in Woylondhove been d iscontinued tempororily,ond nolhing significont hos evolvedwilh respect to ioint long-rongesewoge plonning for Sudbury ondWoylond. With the oddit¡on of ofull-time Director of Heolth, morelime will be ovoiloble to pursue thepossibilities of regionolizotion of se-lected heolth services.

F,RSI DIRECIOR OF HEALTH wos ArthurGordon, oppointed in November by theBoord of Heolth fo ossume fulltime dufiesfor thot boord. W¡th him is his ossistonf,Mrs. Vero Presby.

Once ogoin our oppreciotion is extendedto the privote physicions ond dentists whogenerously provided services for clinics ondother heolth octivities, ond to other TownBoords ond officiols who hove cooperotedwith us in o voriety of problems.

-Mr. Fiering investigoted the possibility ond

effectiveness of oerotion of the three'HopBrook ponds. This wos found to be unecon-

SUDBURY PUBTIC HEATTHNURSING ASSOCIATION

The Sudbury Public Heolth Nursing As-sociotion continues to offer o generolizedheolth progrom to the community. The volueof th¡s opprooch where oll heolth servicesore combined under one odministrotivestructure connot be overstoted, ond the od-vontoges of such on orrongement ore cleorond incontrovertible. Fomilies ore treotedos units functioníng within their own en-vironment. Eoch nurse gives o completeservice in thot she works with oll the mem-bers of the fomily on problems reloted toheolth. Her knowledge of the fomily os owhole ond of the interrelotionships of thevorious members helps her to give o betterservice to eoch fomily member.

The Sudbury Public Heolth Nursing As-sociotion is oble to provide lhis compre-hensive community heolth service becouseof its controctuol orrongement with theBoord of Heolth, the Sudbury schools ondthe Regionol High School. As o certifiedMedicore Agency, it olso provides bedsidenursing core, physicol theropy, speech ther-opy ond occupotionol theropy to ocutelyond chronicolly ill potients of oll oges whenrequested by o physicion.

The services rendered by the nurses forthe Boord of Heolth ore moinly in the oreoof prevention. This is o posítive opproochto heolth ond one which hos proven to bethe most economicol. Prevention of diseoseis executed under lhree boord progroms:Communicoble diseose control, moternolond child heolth, ond odult heolth guidonce.

Communicoble diseoses ore controlledlorgely through immunízotion progroms.The following progroms corried out in lheschools were sponsored by the Boord ofHeolth, Diphtherio-tetonus innoculotions of-fered to grodes l, ó ond I l; Smollpox re-voccinotions offered to grodes ó ond 12;Tuberculin screening for grodes ì, 3, ó ond9; Germon Meosles immunizotions hovenow been offered to grodes l-ó. There woso lorge response to the Germon Meoslesprogrom since it is the most recently dis-covered immunizing ogent.

The Boord of Heolth hos mode the nurs-ing service responsible for moking homevisits in ollcommunicoble diseose coses for

the purpose of heolth educotion, preventionof the spreod of the diseose, ond the pro-motion of heolth.

Moternol ond Child Heolth oclivities hoveincluded Well Child Conferences. This is ocommunity clinic for the infont or pre-schoolchild held tw¡ce monthly in the SudburyPublic Heolth Nursing office in the town'sWhite Building. The well child is seen byo doctor on on oppointment bosis for rou-tine physicol exominotions, immunizotionsond booslers. The nurse counsels porentson ony speciol problems during the op-pointment time, ond on home visits.

As o motter of policy, home visits oremode to oll premoture infonts to insurethot optimum heolth core is being providedond to ossist ond support the fomily.

The emphosis in the Moternol ond ChildHeolth progrom is on teoching ond is cor-ried out on on individuol bosis in the home.The nurse odvises the expectont mother inthe core of herself ond in the preporotionfor her boby. The porents of o new-bornmoy request the services of o nurse todemonstrote how to bothe the new bobyond to instruct them in the generol coreof the boby ond the mother upon their re-turn from the hospitol.

Other progroms in this oreo, sponsoredby the Boord of Heolth, includes the pre-school vision screening clinic which thisyeor wos offered to oll children of nurseryschool oge.The children of kindergortenoge received vision ond qudio testing otpre-school registrofion. Also, the dentolscreen ing progrom held in the schools woscorried out by the locol dentists who volun-teered their services.

We ore continuing to porticipote in theStote Heolth Deportment's survey of thenewborn ond fomily's immunizotion hisloryto determine the extent of immunizotioncoveroge in Mossochusetts.

Adult heolth guidonce visits ore modeby the nurse for voried reosons. Exomplesof heolth guidonce octivities ore the evolu-otion of fomily heolth needs, flnding ondusing ovoiloble community resources for

The role of the nurse in lhe schools inthis generolized progrom is, os follows:

l. Heolth guidonce to fomilies of schoolchildren - home visits to help fomiliesobtoin odequote guidonce ond corefor their ch¡ldren.

2. Act os lioson between school, homeond communilyo. lnterpret school heolth policies

ond resources to porents.

b. lnterpret home siluotions to

3. Prevention ond control of illness - in-

4. Heolth opproisol ond counseling.

c. Counsel with pupils, teochers,guidonce personnel ond Porentson the physicol ond emotionolheolth of the ch¡ld.

7. Emergency core ond first oid - thenurse gives immediote, tempororyfirst oid in cose of occident or illness.

The omount of time o nurse is physicollypresent in the school is limited. However,she visits the school doily to provide theservices nomed obove.

There hos been on increose in the de-mond for our bedside nursing services thisyeor ond we hope this trend will continue.Rislng hospitol rotes, over-crowded hospi-tols ond the psychologicol benefit of "HomeCore" mokes Visiting Nurse Services moreottroctive thon ever. With orders from o

ln order to more fully meel the needsof our exponding populotion ond to fulfillour responsibillty to the community os de-scribed in this reporl, stoff hos been in-creosed by one full time nurse. Also, oneport time nurse hos become full time. ln-evitobly, this brings odded costs, but in-creosed quolity of potient, fomily ond com-munity service will be lhe result. Brochures,now being revised, describe in detoil theogency's services ond will be moiled to eochresidence eorly in ì971. We hope the citi-zens of Sudbury will fully utilize the pro-fessionol services of this communityorgo n izotion.

Since SDAC efforts involve implemento-tion of o student drop in center, continuo-tion of the Hot Line, o speoker,s bureou,drug educotion, fund roising, ponel discus-sions wilh former oddicts, lectures by lowenforcement ogencies etc., it becomes d¡ffi-cult for SDAC leoders to remoin entirelyunknown.

THE TOWN WATER SUPPTY _

BORN IN CONTROVERSY

Sudbury Woter District will be issuingshortly its Annuol Reporl, the 35th sincelhe community's public woter system begonto function. How mony of the townsfolkreolize, I wonder, the scope of thot threeond one holf decodes of civic ochievement?

At o time when the problems besettingou r system of representotive democrocy oreogoin mony ond serious, the success storyof this citizen generoted ond operoted pro-

iect in one Mossochusetts town over theyeors moy prove reossuring. For it is ochronicle of potience, civic tenocity, ondprocticol foresight in the best New Englondtrod ition.

Whot begon os o venture immediotelyoffecling directly but o smoll froclion ofSudbury's ìó80 inhobitonts in the eorly1930's todoy encomposses the vost moior-ity of the community's ì3,350 people, theirhomes, churches, public buildings, busines-ses ond industries. The Woter District's FirstAnnuol Report, covering the finol months of193ó (during which the system first becomeoperotionol) bolonced receipts of $5,175.92ogoinst expenditures of $3,700.84 with thecosh bolonce in hond of but $ 1475.08! The34th Annuol Report issued eorlier lhis yeordepicted on enterprise involving $37ó,578in ossels ond liobilities, with o surplus ofmore thon $95,500 whlch mode the 1970Annuol District Tox unnecessoryl

Thirty-five yeors hoven't eroded soundmonogement in the public interest - thegool set when the Sudbury Woter Districtbegon.

Then, the District boosted of iust 8 milesof woter moin; todoy il functions throughmore thon 90 miles. lt begon with o modest40 hydronts in service. Todoy they number5ó5. Only óì services were octive in 193óos the initiol four months of octivity ended.There ore now 2850. The single wellfield,wh¡ch pumped 152,800 gollons os of Decem-ber 31, ì93ó, is dworfed by the 341,492,000gollons sold in ì9ó9 f rom multiple sourcessince odded to the system.

lf thot isn't o success story, whot is?

The Greol Depression wos more thon twoyeors old ¡n the Spring of 1933. lt hod h¡t

olmost every community ocross the notion,lorge or smoll, with economic devostotion,sooring unemployment ond stoggering re-l¡ef rolls. Among the ogriculturol reochesof the notion, however, this pentecost ofcolomity exocted its most feorsome toll. ln

them it hod been o building olmost holf odecode prior to "The Greot Crosh" thotswept the country's cities.

The town mode fomous by "Toles of o

Woyside lnn" hod been stricken olreody byseverol yeors of recurrent mid-summerdrought which wreoked hovoc omong Sud-bury's numerous truck forms ond floristenterprises. Mony householders, theirwell-ond-pump systems chronicolly disobled,were forced to tote woter in wheelborrowsond cors from f¡eld springs, or buy il fromoutside of town by the gollon iug. House-wives mourned their wilted flower gordens;ond their onxielies were increosed olmostevery spring os scorlet fever reoppeored.Polluted wells were suspected,

Then odversity struck onother blow o fewmonths before spring orrived in ì933. Thetownsfolk wotched, onkle deep in slush otthe town center, wh i le their Town Ho ll burnedto the ground despite voliont efforts by vol-unteer firemen to sove it with the ossistonceof o smoll hose ottoched to o locol well.

Sudbury's fire insuronce rotes, of course,were omong the highest in Mossochusetts.

Then come Moy.

ln Woshington the new Roosevelt odmin-istrotion begon to discuss o proposed gigon-tic public works progrom designed to tokelhe iobless off relief rolls which weregettingout of hond. The plon wos to build roods,highwoys, tunnels, hospitols, oirports; todevelop reclomotion proiects, construct sew-oge systems, renovote seoports, cleor slums,oid public power development, strengthenthe novol forces ond develop public wotersy stems.

Heoding this gigontic progrom (which wosto be funded eventuolly by Federol grontsof 45% supplemented by locol bond issuesof55% ond o stoggering Federoloppropriotionof $3,300,000,000) would be crusty, ó0-yeor-old Horold lckes of lllinois, one-time cru-

53

soder under the reformist bonners of TeddyRoosevelt's Progressive Porty. lckes wosolso bottled-scorred from more recent, ondseemingly tireless, ossoults upon politicolcorruption in Chicogo.

Suspicious, inured to the wiles of "over-world exploiters ond underworld rock-eteers", "Honest Horold" exuded energy,persistence ond o very strong mind. Hewos determined to moke representotivedemocrotic government work in the publicinterest. And he did, with the ossistonce ofo smoll ormy of pre-Noderion lowyer oc-countonls corefully screened by himself.These were to police PWA-opproved pro-iects. (Their effectiveness wos oltested yeorsloter: not o single scondol morred imple-mentotion of the $3,300,000,000 progrom.)

While Worf ingto; rocked with deboteobout the proposed Public Works Adminis-trotion, in Sudbury o smoll group of citizenstook the initiotive. They orgonized o door-bell-ringing compoign in on unofficiol con-voss of public sentiment. "Should Sudburyseek Federol oid for institution of o publicly-owned woter syslem?" Severol townsfolkdenounced the ideo-some explosively. Avery lorge moiority of those opproochedproved enthusiostic.

Lote in Moy, 1933, th¡s cilizens' committeetook its findings to the Selectmen who ogreedlo bring the question to formol test. Anoffic¡ol town committee consisting of HorveyN. Foirbonk, Jomes H. Powers, Poul Whit-ney Rhoodes, Gordner Poole ond MelvinGuptil wos directed to ossess every ospectof the community'swoter problem ond reportto o speciol town meeting when their studywos completed. Upon their petition, ond thotof others who ioined them, the meeting con-vened September 25, 1933, to heor ond octupon the results.

A public woter system, the committee re-ported, would cut fire insuronce rotes op-proximotely in holf. Sopromised theMosso-chusetts lnsuronce Exchonge! lt would sovethousonds of dollors in toxes by reducing firelosses, cut electric bills by eliminoting pump-ond-well systems ond strengthen the eco-nomic role of locol ogriculture by counteringdrought conditions. The problern of costs ino lownship os lorge os Sudbury could bedeolt with only by beginning with o WoterDistrict which would include both town cen-

ters ond immediotely odiocenl lond. Expon-sion would follow in ensuing yeors.

The trump cord held by the woter com-mittee wos held for lost. lt wos o lelterfrom Horold lckes, who heoded the FederolPublic Works Administrofion. Chorocteris-ticolly, "Honest Horold" first scolded theSudbury commiltee for nol "giving him timeto cotch his breoth" ond complete orgonizo-tion of his off¡ce stoff. Then he congrotulotedthem for their initiolive ond pledged thotpublic woter systems would hold "lhe veryfirst priority" on the Federol proiect listfor PWAI

The speciol town meeting thereupon op-proved by o lorge moiority the request ofthe woter committee for on oppropriotion of$1850 to be spent by o Woter Committeein exploring ond testing for o public wolersupply source ond the retention of engineer-ing services for this purpose, ond to obtoinneeded opprovols for o public woter workssystem, creotion of o Woter District understote lows, ond opplicotion to the FederolPWA for o conslruction gront.

This preliminory victory for the couse ofo Woter District, its proponents knew, hodbeen won not only by their own efforts, butby the very oclive support of scores ofother cilizens. Among lhe most effectivechompions of the couse were the town house-wives, the members of the locolgorden club,ond the long-suffering moritol portners ofthe woter commilteemen who were olreodybecoming inured to endlesscommittee meet-ings in the Power's front sitting-room otnight.

The stote legisloture enocted Chopter 100of the Generol Lows in mid-Morch 1934,upon petition of the Sudbury Woter Com-mittee, ond the stoge wos set for o politicolwor which wos to persist for some 16months. Eoger to press oheod now lhotsonction hod been given by the Common-weolth, the Woter Committee, colled thefirst Sudbury Woter District meeting o fort-night loter. Chopter 100 wos occepted. Sowos its provision for o Boord of WoterCommissioners ond other District officers.But the cruciol request for outhorizotion ofo bond issue of $ì15,000 (the estimotedcostof the proiect) went down to defeot, ofterlong ond ocrimonious debote. lt locked lherequired two-thirds by o norrow morgin.

54

Another otlempt wos mode the followingmonlh, on Moy 2, only to meet o seconddefeot. The number of supporters ottend-ing hod grown, but nol enough. The boordof Woter Commissioners elected prior tothis new debocle consisted of Jomes H.Powers, choirmon, Horvey N. Foirbonk ondE. Normon Bowry. Cobot Devoll served os

clerk ond treosurer. They decided tochongeto ctics.

lndirectly, over the gropevine, word wosreceived from one of the leoding opponentsthot opposition might dimin¡sh if the Com-missioners ogreed to purchose severolocresof lond owned in his fomily "os o sourcefor the woter supply". The Commissionersignored the offer. A second covert sugges-tion from the opposition urged thot ideos ofo public system be dropped ond o privotely-owned woler compony be substituled. The

onswer wos silence.

By this lime orguments were townwide-ond very heoted indeedl Commuters onthe 8: l5 fought over the project oll the woyto Boston !

Meontime the Woter Commissionersturned lo other ospects of their problem.They soughl engineering odvice from Foy,Spofford ond Thorndike of Boston, o prom-inent firm eventuolly selected to direct in-slollotion of the system - if ond when theobstocles were cleored owoy: conferenceswith Federol outhorities, becouse of chongesin lhe relief lows by Congress, ond withheolth officiols regording woter quolity; pre-liminory inquiries regording moteriol; con-voss for potentiolwotertokers - the ogendoseemed endless.

Time wos groduolly running out, but theprospect brightened when Congress boostedPWA gronts by 15%. This would meon onincreose for the Woter District from onoriginolly expected Federol gront of $3 ì,-000 to $53,750 under the 45%-55%form-ulo! Then eorly in September of 1935 thePresident of the United Stoles signed hisopprovol of the Sudbury Woter District pro-

iecl ond the indefotigoble Horold lckes dis-potched on ultimotum to Sudbury. Unlessthe Woter Dístrict octed togetthings storted,the gront would be sh¡fted to other pro-iects !

The Commissioners proceeded to set thestoge for the showdown. Colling o District

meeting for Seplember 25, 1935, they or-gonized o drive lo get out the Districtvoters. By telephone ond letler ond volun-teer visiting committees, ossisled olso byloon of severol cors for tronsportotion whereneeded, the compoign developed.

And it worked. Neorly three quorters ofthe entire potentiol District vote turned outos the moderotor opened the cruciol meet-ing. The bond issue wos opproved by oresounding morgin, ond the bottle seemedwonl But the foes of the proiect were notdone yet. When counsel for the WoterDistrict, under direction of the Commission-ers, moved to floot the bond issue he comehotfooting to the Commissioners with oston-ishing news. Thecruciolly importontoriginolpetition of the Town Woter Committee totheSeleclmen hod been removed from thetownsofe! Wilhout this key document volidotionof the bond issue wos in ieopordy.

This bizorre problem wos neverthelesssolved. The Woter Commissioners compiledonce more o list of signotories to lhe orig-inol petition oll of whom they knew, Verifiedby phone, this list wos given to lowyerClork, together with o one porogroph offi-dovit stoting thot the signer swore underoolh he hod signed the originol petilion.Armed with these two documents the Dis-trict counsel begon, one by one, to visit thel¡st pf signotories. He hod reoched the fifthor sixth when, suddenly, the missing docu-ments reoppeored in the town sofe!

Within o month ofter cleoronce of theselost hurdles controct preporotion wos com-pleted by the engineers, bids were soughtby odverlisement, ond the construction con-troctor wos selected: E. Reppucci ond Co.of Boston. ln December cleoronce comefrom PW,A in Woshington, ond work begonof once on instollotion of the woter system.

Some 202 meetings were held by theWoter Commissioners, most of them threehours long, during the finol ló months de-voted to this proiect. These were in odditionto innumeroble brief conferences with theengineers, with the controctor, with irotecitizens who obiected to lhe noise ond dustof construction work ond with prospectivewoter tokers who wonted the whole proiectexploined ogoin. Three visits by Federolpolice ouditors livened lhe scene olsol The

And finolly, lote in August ì93ó, the firstservice wos octivoted, qnd Forrest Brod-show, the new Woter District superintendent,begon to toke over.

Postscript: Why, ond by whot molice offortune d¡d the fomily dog of the choirmonof the Woter Commission, iet block ondeosily indentífioble, rove one ofternoonthot September down to South Sudbury ondmoke off with o two pound roll of butterfrom the shoded bock window ledge of thehome of the Woter D¡strict's most indefoti-goble foe - on escopode which forced theemborrossed choirmon (who leorned of it

And by whot molign destiny, thot somesummer, os the newly-instolled hydrontswere being given high pressure tests, didone of them on Concord Rood blow its cop,sending o 40 yord streom of woter orchingocross the front lown of the some doggedontogonist of the woter proiect who hoppen-ed to be sitting in o rocking choir on thelown under o mople tree? Any why did thewotery blost knock him squorely off hischo i r?

REGIONAT DISTRICT SCHOOT COMMITTEE

Educotionolly, 1970 wos onother yeor ofchonge, ond hopefully, progress for the Lin-coln-Sudbury Regionol High School. Existingprogroms such os the holl system continuedto evolve. New octivities such os the fresh-men odvisor progrom, flexible scheduling,the ollelective progrom for upperclossmen,provision of severol options for the use ofunstructured time, ond lhe Coreer Exploro-tion Progrom commenced. Some new pro-groms experienced normol olthough never-theless discomforting birth poins. On bol-once, however, both the evolution of theestoblished progroms ond the creotion ofnew progroms contributed to one of theSchool's moin obiectives. This obiective isto provide students with better high schooleducotion by recognizing lhot it requires ovoriety of educotionol octivities to sotisfythe diverse needs of o heterogeneous stu-dent body. Thus, the school tries to providesuperior progroms for ocodemicolly to lentedstudents, for students of overoge obility,ond for students with leorning difficulties oswell os for students with different coreerobiectives. Moreover, this opprooch toedu-cotion imposes on the student ond his fom-ily - with some guidonce ond direction fromthe School - the burden of selecting fromomcng o worthwhile group of options, theeducr:tionol octivilies most meoningful tohis or her ocodemic, personol, ond socioldevelopment.

ln ony ropidly chonging institution, portic-ulorly one dedicoted to providing o widevoriety of educolionol opportunities, ode-quote control, effective odministrotion, ondsotisfoctory comm unicotion ore likely to beproblems. No doubt the controversiol no-ture of the times, ond the involvement ofyouth in so mony of the resulting encoun-ters, contributes to these problems. Never-theless, the School Committee become dis-tressed when its efforts to improve controlond odministrotion within the School ondcommunicotion octivities both within theSchool ond with the community were notsufficiently successful. Therefore, it inform-olly ond privotely requested the resignotion

of the Superintendent. When this requestinodvertently become public, the Superin-tendent, who hod tenure, refused to resign.The ensuing controversy stimuloted d¡ff¡cultbut hopefully constructive soul seorchingomong oll the porties to the dispute. Theresult wos on ogreementbetween the SchoolCommittee ond the Superintendenl to re-double lheir efforts to try to work out theird¡fficulties. This ogreement recognized boththe Committee's strong support for the edu-cotionol obiectives of the School ond theneed to overcome the School's control, od-ministrotive, ond communicotion weok-nesses.

Although the preceding porogrophs chron-icle enough octivity for ony School Com-mittee for ql leost o yeor, still other note-worthy events took ploce. Affirmotive voteson region-wide elections in both Lincolnond Sudbury hopefully foreshodow both thelong run survivol, further improvement, ondconlinued growth of the School. Unfortun-otely, the School's growth in physicol size,but not in number of students, wos tem-pororily set bock by defeot in Sudbury of oproposol for odditionol plonning money foro School odd¡tion. Anolher proposolfor onoddition will therefore be presented to bothtowns in the neor fulure so thot lhe Schoolwill hove enough of the right kinds of spoceto provide o quolity educotion for its bur-geoning sludent body.

,As the colendor yeor closed, lhe Com-mittee completed work on its budget for197 |. This yeor, preporotion of the budgel

wos o porticulorly vexing tosk.

One of the more rewording ospects of thisdlfficult yeor wos the high level of interestond performonces of the focully, odminis-trotion ond stoff. They worked diligently inpursuit of the gool of providing students ofthe Regionol with superior educotions.

This yeor olso sow significont lurnover inthe composition of the School Committee.Bob Bierig resigned in April over differ-ences with the Administrotion ond othermembers of the Committee but continuesto serve the School copobly os Choirmon ofits Building Committee. Also, Lorry Homonresigned in December when o iob tronsferresulted in h¡s deporture from Sudbury.The Regionol hos benefited significontly fromthe contribution of these two men. Further-more, lhose of us who hod the pleosure toserve with them will miss their contributionond their counsel.

. Like the yeors before iT, 1970 wos o yeqrof chonge. New courses ond new progromsmode their oppeoronce os we recognizedlhe legitimote needs for these progroms.Our response is to lhe imperotive identifiedby Chorles E. Silbermon in Crisis in theClqssroom: "Whot tomorrow needs is notmosses of intellectuols, but mosses of edu-coted men - men educoted to feel ond tooct os well os to think."

The following l¡st of some of the chongesof ì9l0 ¡s not meont to be complete, nordoes il ottempt to ronk chonges in order ofim porto nce.

L Centrol Holl - The growth in the sizeof the school mode necessory thecreotion of o fifth holl to continue thepottern of decentro lizotion previouslyset by the other four holls. Mr. Roy-mond Mortin, who hod served o yeoros octing director of West Holl, ¡s thenew director; Mr. Stonley benAbromis the holl counselor.

2. Freshmon Advisors A new pro-grom lhis yeor, the freshmon odvis-ors ore o group of oboul 30 teoch-ers, oll volunteers, who ore eochserving os odvisor to o group ofobout l4 f reshmen. Eoch incomingfreshmon wos given the chonce toselecl his odvisor.

3. Flexible Scheduling - Vorious pro-grom demonds mode necessory in1970 o move to o f lexible schedule of95 20-minute periods. Although moslcourses continue o pottern of four orf ive meetings per week, eoch 40 min-utes in length, other potterns hoveemerged. Consideroble confusion oc-curred in September os students hodto odiust to o new schedule, ond con-sideroble community concern contin-ues to exist on the omount of unstruc-tured time ovoiloble under o flexibly-scheduled progrom.

4. Elective Progroms - Most notobly,perhops, in the History ond Englishdeportments, but occurring in oll

sow o broodshift from o required, sequentiol setof courses to on elective progrom.While frustrotion occurs becouse con-flicts moy moke scheduling o desiredcourse impossible, lhe ronge of elec-live courses increoses eoch student'sobility to creote o progrom of studyclosely motching his needs.

lnterdisciplinory Progroms - For thefirst time in yeors, the onnuolsummerworkshop on curriculum developmentcut ocross deportment lines. Consid-eroble plonning wos done on the de-sign of two new resource centers, oswell os o new interdisciplinory courseon Environmentol lssues. lnoddition,o mixture of odministrotors ond teoch-ers from voriousdeportments shore inteoching such courses os volue iudge-ments ond psychology.

Coreer Explorotion Progrom - Anew progrom which includes someexisting ond some new cou rses, theCoreer Explorotion Progrom, hosbeen creoted both for students notinterested in otlending college, oswell os for college bound studentswho wish to explore certoin coreerpossibilities. The progrom ollows forcoreer selection in some coses by stu-dents going into iobs immediotelyofter high school.

7. School Council - The close of the1969-70 school yeor lost spring sowfoirly generol ogreement thot o three-port school council (students, foculty,odministrotion) wos only o step owoy.While the opening of the 1970-71school yeor hos not yet seen thotstep token, it hos seen g roups offoculty, students, ond members of theodmin istrotion exploring cooperotive-ly whol kind of student government,if ony, is needed, ond whot stepsshould be token to provide moreeffective inte rno I commu nicotions.

ln summory it is imporlont lo note thot themoior chonges in progrom for 1970-71 hovebeen directed toword encouroging youngpeople of oll obil¡ties ond wide-ronging in-

terests to expond ond fully develop theirpotentiols. lt hos been our porticulor con-cern through such progroms os the fresh-mon odvisors, elective progroms, ond cor-eer ond interdisciplinory progroms to pro-vide on effective educotionol chollenge forthose students with overoge to good obilitywho hove not generolly been sufficientlymotivoted to ochieve their potentiol.

Lincoln-Sudbury continues to be o chol-lenging ploce to work ond to study. Welook to the decode of the '/0s, conscious ofopportunities missed ond mistokes mode,but conscious, too, of the increosed spirit ofcooperotion ond mutuol respect os we oll,students ond teochers ol¡ke, go obout ourbusiness of educolion.

Your committee, estobl¡shed by the lg67Annuol Town Meeting, hos been octivelyporticipoting in the plonning of the Minute-mon Regionol Vocotionol School District.Th¡s d¡strict, when estoblished, will consistof the towns of Belmont, Arlington, Lexing-ton, Concord, ond such of the towns ofActon, Boxboro, Corlisle, Lincoln, Slow, Sud-bury, Woylond ond Weston os vote to ioin.A vote on membership in this district w¡llbe token ot the l92ì Annuol Town Meeting.We ore very fovorobly disposed lowordioining lhis distr¡ct becouse:

L The Minutemon School will provide oneeded, ond of present non-existenl,educotionol option for Sudburystud enls.

2. The opportionment of cosls is unusuol-. ly fovoroble. After the school is ín

. operotion, Sudbury will poy operoling' costs determined only by the froclionof the Minutemon student body whichcomes from Sudbury. Copitol coslsoreopporlioned in the some woy. ln od-d¡tion, generous federol ond stole oidwill result in o per pupil cost less thonthot ot Lincoln-sudbury Regionol; oper-oting costs ore 50% reimbursed by theslote.

ln 1967 lhe Plonning Committee recom-mended thot Sudbury not ioin the AssobetVolley Regionol High School D¡slrict be-couse of our belief in the inodequocy ofthe educotionol príorilies ond the unfovor-oble finonciol orrongements. ln controst,the Minutemon Region should provide thetype of progrom Sudbury desires becouse:

l. The educotionol gools of the lownsinvolved ore very similor lo our own.All towns mointoin high-quolity educo-tionol systems, ond oll towns sendlorge percentoges of their students onto higher educotion.

2. The Plonning Boord ond the superin-tendents of the member towns ore com-milted to moking the MinutemonSchool something more lhon o tro-ditionol trode school. A wide ronge ofvocolionol opportunities ore envision-ed comb¡ned with o quolity technicol

preporotion for sludenls who wish tocontinue their educotion.

3. The reporl of the Minutemon Curricu-lum Committee ploces emphosis onthe leorning of odoptive skills rolherlhon on specific ond perhops obsoles-cent troining.

The experience of other towns, most re-cently Acton ond Boxboro, shows thot otown musl ioin o Vocotionol-Technícol dis-lrict ql its foundolion if it hopes to continueto send students. Vocotionol-Technicolschools ocross the Commonweolth whichhove been in operotion for o few yeorscommonly hove lhree to four opplicotionsfor every ovoiloble opening.

Present plonning indicotes lhotthe Minute-mon School will be oble to occept 144Sudbury sludents. lt should be poínied outthot this School will be only o portiol on-swer to the vocqtionol needs of our stu-dents. Opportunities for exposure to o vo-riety of coreer-reloted experiences, pro-groms for motivoting non-verbol studentsond other progroms for non-college boundstudents must conlinue to be provided otLincoln-Sudbury Regionol High School.

It is the opinion of the Committee thotmembership in the Minutemon District pro-vides o needed educotionol opportunity forSudbury students.

REPORT OF

THE TOWN CIERK

The worklood of the deportment continuedto increose over the post yeor of o fosterrote thon the populotion.

ln spite of this increose in worklood, thebudget for 1971 reflects on increose ofonly obout 2.4% . The octuol dollor omountreq uested indicoles o lorger increose. How-ever, over $ 1,500 wos included to coverthe cost of o second census in lg71 re-quired by the possoge of Question 4 onthe November bollot colling for legislotiveredistricting. This omounl will presumoblyeither be reimbursed or possibly poid dir-ectly by the Stote.

My report for lost yeor indicoted o perperson cost of the deportment for 1970 of$2.12. The l97l budget requests reflecton estimoted per person cost of the someomount, indicoting thot we ore indeed hold-ing the line on costs. ln oddition, on in-creosing omount of money is turned overto the town treosury os o result of thedeportment's work. ln l9ó9, the Town re-ceived over $5,000 from the sole of mops,by-lows, copies, ond the County refund fromdog licenses. .A somewhot higher figureshould be subtrocted from the 197 ì budgetto obtoin the octuol net cost.

The post yeor hos been porticulorly busywith respect to elections ond voter regis-trotion due to the Stole Primory ond iheStote Bienniol Election os well os the AnnuolIown Election. ln oddition, the Annuol TownElection resulted in on unusuol tie vote forone of the offices necessitoting o specioltown election lost Moy.

Over 800 new voters were odded to ourlists during the yeor. Voter registrotionwossomewhot complicoted due to court ordersond omendments to the Federol VotingRights Act relotive to residence ond literocyrequirements. As we opprooched the Octo-ber Speciol Town Meeting there were sev-ero I d ifferent cotegories of voters, thosewho could vote in the Town Meeling ond inthe November Election, those who couldvote in the Town Meeting but not in theNovember Election, ond those who could

vote only on poper bollot ond only ot theNovember Election. The possoge of Ques-tion 2 on the November bollot decreosingresidence requirements to ó months willhelp this situotion in the future.

,An unusuolly lorge omount of new legis-lotion is expected during lhe l97l sessionof the Generol Court to implement theseverol questions possed on the Novemberbollot ond the new requirements of the fed-erol voting lows. This willundoubtedly hoveo consideroble impoct upon the work of thedeportment.

A moior ond significont project completedduring the yeor wos the publicotíon of lheAnnototed Zoning By-low. The onnototionshows the evolution of the By-low, sectionby section, from its origin in l93l to thepresent time. ïh is reference work hos prov-en itself to be well worth the time ond effortrequired for reseorch ond writing since weore now oble to onswer quickly ond eff¡c-iently the mony questions received fromtown boords, committees ond officers, low-yers ond the public. lt is plonned thot theonnototion will be requlorly updoted os newomendments ore voted ond opproved.

A símilor onnototion of the entire TownBy-low is in process ond this proiect is ex-pecled to be completed in 197ì.

Work hos continued on the cross-indexedcord f¡le of oll town meeting octions. Thefile hos soved mony hours of reseorch onindividuol questions ond is now completefrom ì900 to dote.

W¡th the cooperotion ond ossislonce of theAncient Documents Committee, work hosbeen done to reorronge ond cotologue themoteriql in the Town Clerk's voult. Allmoteriol hos been listed on cords so thot itcon be orronged by cotogories ond on in-dex con be storted.

ln connection with this work, $ 1,000 hosbeen requested to begin o microfilm pro-iect. lt is poinfully opporent thot the Townis ropidly running out of spoce in the upper

76

voult used by mony town boords ond of-ficiols, ond in the lower voult used to storethe older records. There ore mony recordsnol of hisloric volue in ond of themselvesbut contoining informotion which should bepermonently preserved. Some of the itemsin this cotegory ore poyroll vouchers, oldbuilding permils, old voluolion cords, ondcheck lisls used ol eleclions ond town meel-ings. Once the informotion hos been micro-filmed, o records retirement ond deslructionsystem con be set up lo moke much neededvoult spoce ovoiloble.

This work will be corried out in coopero-tion with oll the deportmenls ond officerscurrenlly needing such high securily spoceos thot provided by the voults.

As I neor the end of my first lerm inoff¡ce I wish to thonk oll Town offic¡ols ondresidenis for three yeors of excellent co-operotion ond ossislonce. The post threeyeors hove been mosl interesting ond re-wording ond I hove enioyed lhis opportun-ity to serve the Town.

Mr. Toft lhen went on to describe the building os follows:The building is o foirly high one slory cinder block buildingwith either windows, or o lorge gloss block window oreo onlhe west side. lt hos o slob foundotion which is inloct ondopporently well droined. There is no evidence of ony moisluregelting inlo the building. lhe roof is insuloted. The buildingis heoted with gos lired spoce lype heoters. lt olso hos overy lorge electricol service, much lorger thon the Town orony other user would probobly ever need. There is o smolloffice on lhe front. The totol oreo of the building is obout2,500 squore feet. The bock room is oboul 36 by 20 feet ondthe front room is obout 3ó by 45 feet. The replocemenl volueof the building is obout 935,000.

The Pork ond Recreolion Commission hos olreody indicoledto us lhol it hos need for more sloroge spoce for olhleticequipmenl ond lhe snow blower. The Sudbury Little Leogueond the Pop Worner Leogue could olso use port of lhe build-ing for equipmenl storoge. Ultimotely it will hove volue lo lheSchool Deporlmenl for sloroge.

The piece of lond in question wos originolly port of lheFeotherlond Pork oreo. The first time il wos presenled lo lheTown for purchose, lhe orlicle did nol receive lhe necessorytwo-lh¡rds vole. Therefore, lhe Pork ond Recreolion Commis-sion negotioted o lower price with lhe former owner ondto obtoin it, this porl of the property wos cul out ond sub-sequenlly sold to Mr. Donold MocRoe.

Mr. MocRoe hos been using the properly os o worehouseunder o vor¡once from lhe Boord of Appeols. However, hehos no longer ony use for il since he is no longer in thefurniture business ond now hos o conlingenlsole to someonewho would l¡ke to use the properly for o worehouse ond oreloil dry goods business. He hos received o vorionce fromthe Boord of Appeols, but both the Plonning Boord ond tenof the loxpoyers in lhe immediote neighborhood hove lokenon oppeol. We now hove speciol counsel represenling lhePlonning Boord ond Town Counsel represenling the Boordof Appeols. We figure thot the suil ogoinsl ourselves will costclose lo $5,000. However lhe lowsuit comes oul, we will nolhove gollen onylhing of volue to lhe Town.

ln o sense, by lhe woy we purchosed Feolherlond Pork, wehove mode lhis piece of property on islond. Essenliolly il is oresidenliol piece of lond, but the building on il could not bemode inlo o residentiol building. lt is o good purchose for theïown lo moke for storoge purposes ond is o noturol odjunctto the Feotherlond Pork property.

Fínonce Commillee Reporl: (Mr. Phillips Hunt) The FinonceCommittee does nol supporl lhis orlicle for lhe purchose ofthe lond ond buildings odlocent to Feotherlond Pork. The reolissue here is nol whelher lhis property is worlh lhe price weore being osked to poy for it. ll is whether or nol lhe Townneeds on odd¡tionol building ot this time.

The Finonce Commiltee hos met with the Selectmen, theSchool Commillee, ond lhe Pork ond Recreolion Commissionond hos discussed the use of this building with eoch of thesecommillees. ll wos hoped lhot the School Deportmenl coulduse lhis building for the sloroge of their supplies now beingstored in lhe South School. However, upon furlher exomino-tion, il wos found thot lhe School Deporlmenl now uses some4,500 squore feet ot lhe South School. The oreo ovoilobleto lhe School Commillee in the MocRoe building would beobout 3,ó00 squore feel. An olternqtíve to the Soulh Schoolsloroge wos lo use port of the MocRoe building ond porl ofthe Cenler School. The School Commillee wos reluclont lomove from lheir single self-contoined building ond hove slor-oge in h#o seporole buildings.

Undoubtedly the Pork ond Recreolion Commission con findsome use for this bu¡ld¡ng. However, we do nol feel thol il isbeing used effíciently nor do we feel lhot the Town octuolly

needs lo buy onolher building ot lhis point.

The purchose of o building of lhis nolure will olso meon onincreose in mointenonce cosls, renovolion cosls, ond lhe oc-cess rood would cerloinly hove to be repoired.

The moin reoson for considering the purchose of lhis prop-erty is lo settle o legol enlonglemenl. The Finonce Commilleeis reluctonl to seltle on issue by buying o piece of lond. Thiscould open mony more siluolions of this type in lhe fulure,ond we do not feel thotth¡s is the best woy to find o solutionto this problem.

The Finonce Commiltee urges you to voteogoinsllhis orticle.

Pork ond Recreofion Co.Tll¡1onjgel! (Mr. Froncis Feeley)

@oifrtrr"storoge, webock this 100%. We know lhe cosl of conslruclion of o newbuilding runs ol leosl $ó.50 per squore foot. We could notpossibly hope to duplicote il. We consider this something thotwe need very bodly ond will need ¡n lhe future. We hopeyou consider it fovorobly.

Plonning Boord Reporl: (Mr. Richord Dovison) lt moy verywell be û¡ot we do nol hove o lotol pressing need ond usefor th¡s build¡ng ol this time. The Finonce Commiilee is notonticipoting thot two or lhree or five yeors from now weore going to need lhis ond probobly more.

The Plonning Boord's position is thot we would be veryshort sighled nol to think of whot lhe consequences ore if weullimotely were lo lose our cose for lhe oppeol ol the Boordof Appeol's decision. This is o residentiol oreo. There is noqueslion in our minds thol it should not be o business oreo.We hove mony business oreos in Town, some of which willbe exponded w¡th time. This should definitely not be oneof lhem.

This mop shows Old Sudbury Rood, Concord Rood, HudsonRood ond lhe present centrol fire slolion. The only essentiolfeolure in locoling q f ire slolion is the onswer to lhe question,"Wholwill be the overoge trovel lime to the fire?,, The circlesindicoled on the mop ore one mile ond two miles from lheproposed sile. The two mile circle just comes to the Sudburyline in lhe swomp ond folls lust inside lhe Mililory Reservo-lion. Therefore, the oreo of Town is covered os well os it conpossibly be covered in fire services.

Losl yeor we obtoined severol estimoles of the volue of lheproperly. lt is iust slighlly over two ocres of very fine build_oble lond. The two estimotes were S

.l8,900 ond S20,000. Mr.

Groy wos willing to occept S 19,000.

This yeor we obtoined onolher opproisol ot 519,000. Mr.Groy is still willing to sell it for S 19,000.

Losl yeor lhere wos some concern from neighbors os lo theoppeoronce of lhe firsl slolion ond oboul the foct thot theycould see it from lheir houses. The slqlion would be in cleoiview of the Hodder House ocross Hudson Rood. From lheproposed site, lhere is o very foinl view of Mr. Groy,s housebeh¡nd the trees. Mr. Von Goodwin,s house down Old [on-cosler Rood could nol be seen ol oll from the sile.

.Five yeors from now, lhe surrounding properly will prob-obly be more buill up, ond the problems will be more severe.It would be better if people built on properties knowing thotthe fire stolion would somedoy be there.

Mindful of the foct thot mony people expressed lost yeorthe desire lo hove o stolion which wos noi obviously o fireslotion wilh huge doors in front, we hod on orchilecturol firmdesign o possible stotion building.

Alticle 23: To see if the Town will vote to chonge the numberof Seleclmen of lhe Town to be elecled from #iree lo five Íorlerms of lhree yeors eoch in occordonce with the provisionsof Generol [ows, Chopler 41, Section l, or oct on onylhingrelotive lhereto.Submilled by Petitition.

Mr, John Powers wos recognized ond mode lhe followingmolion for the Pelilioners:

Move: Thot lhe Town increose lhe number of members ofthe Boord of Seleclmen from lhree members who servefor o lerm of three yeors lo five members who shollserve for o lerm of lhree yeors ond in order to effecllhis increose lhot lhere be elected lhree new Selectmenot the Annuol Town Election in lgZl to serve with theh¡/o remoining members of the Boord ond of lhese newSeleclmen, one sholl be elected for one yeor, one forlwo yeors, ond one for lhree yeors ond lhot upon lheexpirolion of lhe term of ony Seleclmon so or heretoforeelected his successor sholl be elecled for o lerm oflhree yeors.

Mr. Powers reporled lo lhe meeting for the pelilionersos follows:

This orticle colling lor o chonge in lhe slruclure of ourpresenl Boord of Seleclmen by increosing the number fromlhree lo five wos submilled by petition in occordonce with theGenerol Lows of lhe Commonweollh. The foct thol olher lowns,some close lo us, ore olso considering such o chonge is someindicolion lhot lhe suggesl¡on of o five-mon Boord hos morethon possing merít. ll moy well be thot the three-mon boordhos exisled without much chonge since 1790, but oge oloneis not o sufficient ¡ust¡ficol¡on for ony system.

When Sudbury wos o relotively stoble community of 2,500ond o lown ¡n which every cilizen knew ond undeistood notonly his government but olso personolly knew lhe lhreeSelectmen, lhe question of lhe wise exercise of execulivepower wos relotively simple.

We now hove o highly mobile populotion of 13,000. Theoveroge cilizen's obilíty to know ond underslond his peculiorform of governmenl is nol whot il wos. The obility of ourgovernmenf ond our citizens lo reoch eoch olher hos becomehighly impoired. ln oddition, il is rother cleor lhot we will otleosl double our populotion withín the next fifleen yeors.

. lt is time for Sudbury lo brooden the bose of ils governmenlby expondÌng lhe Seleclmen from three to five. The develop-ing of differing viewpoints on the Town,s chief execulive booidconnol help bul strengthen lhe decisions of thot boord ondtend loword obloining o brooder consensus omong our volers.

The second considerolion hos lo do wilh the nolure of ournew Selectmen. Not only do we hove men who ore no longertied to the Town or to the lond, but the Selectmen of todoy

is usuolly o person who works in on occupolion requiringhim to be out of town o good deol of lhe time ond usuollyon on unplonned bosis. Under our presenl syslem, if onlylwo of these men ore colled owoy ol once, our governmentsuffers os no oclíon con be loken forlock of o quorum. Cleorlyit is much less likely to hove three owoy simultoneously thontwo.

One of lhe most serious considerolions lies in the dongersinherent in the presenl system, dongers wh¡ch hove repeoledlycoused lrouble in recenf yeors. I speok of the proclicol politi-col problem of one-mon governmenl. The Boord of Seleclmenis our highest execulive off ice ond porlicipoles in lhe oppoint-ing of somelhing over 200 posililions, both soloried ond un-soloried. All it tokes is one weok member who is willing tobecome o rubber slomp, ond lhis vost politicolpower is plocedín lhe honds of one mon. lt ¡s infinitely horder to obtoin oblock of lhree votes oul of five lhon it is to dominqte one.

The fourlh considerolion lies in lhe newly complex nolureof lhe Selectmen's lunclion. ln order lo moke lhe best decisionond lo incur lhe smollesl chonce for error, lhe Selectmenshould hove o brood knowledge of mony issues ond moilersof public offoirs. Under lhe present system lhere ore onlylhree men to deploy in invesligotion or subcommiilee work.The proposed chonge to five would olmost double thecoveroge,

ll is significonl to nole lhot wilhoneexception, nol one singleboord or commitree of lhe Town in yeors hos been reducedin size. ln focl olmost every boord ond commíttee formed inthe lost twenty yeors hos hod f ive or more members.

This orticle does not chonge ony of the powers of lhe Boordof Selectmen. Not one du[, nol one prerogotíve, nol oneounce of politicol or governmentol power which now reslsin the Boord of Seleclmen would chonge, Whot does chongeis the number of men who exercise lhot power ond the per-sonol politicol power of the individuol Selectmen.

I urge you lo support this orlicle.

Boord ol Selectmen Report: (Mr. Mortin Doyle) This orticlehos been discussed behveen the Seleclmen ond by lhe Boordof Seleclmen with other concerned comm¡lfees, boords ondorgonizolions. This Boord hos loken o firm posilion in op.posit¡on lo lhis orlicle. The Boord osked Town Counsel for hisopinion of this orticle ond received the following:

"After reviewing lhe proposed chonge in lhe number ofthe Boord of Seleclmen set forlh in Article 23 in the worront .

for lhe 1970 Annuol Town Meeting, it is my opinion thot theHome Rule Procedures Act, Generol Low, Chopter 438, pro-hibits such o chonge unless il is occomplished under the pro-cedures for lhe odoplion, revision or omendmenl of o chorlerunder soid oct. The odoplion, revision or omendment of ochorler con only be occomplished under the ocl through theeleclion of o chorler commission or in occordonce with theprocedures set forth in lhe oct. The procedures hove nol beenmel ond therefore it is my opinion lhot lhe Town Meetingconnol ¡ncreose lhe presenl number on lhe Boord of Select-men from lhree to five os proposed in Arlicle 23 by o voleunder Arlicle 23. lt is respectfully suggested thot the onlyoppropriole votes under Article 23 ore to indefinilely post-pone oclion under the orlicle or to simply express o prefer-ence lhol when o chorler commission or chorler sludy com-mission considers lhe question of lhe size of the Boord ofSelectmen it should include provisions which would increosethe number elecled lo the Boord from lhree to five. A droftof such motion is olloched herelo."

However, lhe Boord trusls ¡n your judgment, We ore nolgoíng to slond on the legol position of this orticle. We wouldprefer to debole lhe orlicle ond hove you vote on its merits.

Selectmen ore on execulive orgonizol¡on, ond Boords ofSeleclmen operole lo provide executive leodership for lheïown. The trend in civic bodies os lhey grow lorger is towords

r28

execulive leodership by smoller groups or even by indi-viduols. You con see exomples ol lhis ¡n cily moyors, slotegovernors ond even lhe Presidenl of lhe United Stotes.

The sloted object of lhis orticle is lo reduce lhe executivefunclions of lhe office ond lo moke il o more representolivebody. We do not think this ¡s the direction the Town wouldwish us lo loke.

There hove been slolemenls thot o three-mon boord con bedominoled by one mon. Ìhis moy hove hoppened over lhehistory of this boord, but ony of you who know the historyof the presenl Boord of Seleclmen would hesilole lo soy lholil is being dominoted by ony one mon.

There is olso o question of the greoter ovoilobility for oquorum. ln the losl hro yeors lhere moy hove been lhreeor four limes lhot we did not hove o quorum. These timeswere known in odvonce, ond the public wos notif ied lhot wedid not hove o meeling. The history of five-mon boords inthis Town does nol reflect lhe otlendonce record of lhe Boordof Selectmen.

The Seleclmen in o neighboring town which hos o five-monboord hove expressed lheir conviclions lhol doing businesswith o five-mon boord is much more ledious since it lokeso greoler elfort ond much more debote lo reoch the decisions.

The division of work lood omong vorious members ol olorger boord moy hove some merit. However, in lhe post wehove never hesitoted to delegote dulies omong our membersor oppoinl od hoc commillees lo deol with problems os lheywere required,

lhese views ore unonimously supported by lhe Boord ofSeleclmen who urge you to defeot this molion.

Commìllee on Town Admìnìslrolion Report (Mr. Mork Koplon)The Commíllee on Town Adminislrotion wos owore of lhequeslion of the volldity of this procedure for increosing lhesize of the Boord of Selectmen ol lhe time we considered ourposilion on lhis orticle. However, os in the cose of the Boordof Seleclmen, we felt it our obligolion lo come before theTown ond express our opinion on lhe merits of lhe orlicle it-

self, irrespeclive of the queslionoble legolity of this methodof increose in lhe size of the boord.

Our view of lhe merits is thol il would nol be in lhe beslinterests of lhe Town to increose the size of the Boord ofSeleclmen. The Boord is on executive rother thon legislotivebody chorged with the implemenlolion of the legislotion odopl-ed by lhe Town Meeting.

We lhink it importont lhot the legislotive body be the groupwith the broodest bose of represenlolion. ln lhe Open Town

Meeting form of governmenl we hove lhe broodest possiblebose of represenlolion where it counls,

We lhink increosing lhe size of lhe execulive body, wilhouto proven need for doing so, would, if onylhing, hinder lheeffeclive execulive implemenlotion of the will ol the Town os

expressed in Town Meeling,

The Commillee on lown Adminislrolion hos token odvonlogeof o study prepored by lhe Mossochusells Seleclmen,s As-sociolion enlitled: "Stotisl¡col Doto Concerning the Adminis-trotion of Town Governmenl in Mossochusells,,. This sludywos prepored in July l9ó9. ll shows thotof the 312 towns inMossochusetts, 42 hove f¡ve-member boords ond 270 hovelhree-member boords. Of the 42 with five-member boords,l7 of them hove lhe Town Monoger form of government.

Out of the l8 Town Monoger lowns in Mossochuselts, lZhove f ive-member boords. Those lowns hove customorily gonefrom three lo five-member boords ot the lime they odoptedTown Monoger. Where lhere is o Town Monoger, the execu-tive oulhority is delegoled from the Selectmen lo lhe TownMonoger, ond lherelore il becomes imporlonl lo broodenthe bose of represenlolion of the town.

OÍ ¡he 294 lowns in Mossochusells which do nol hove theTown Monoger form of governmenl, there ore only 25 whichhove o five-mon Boord of Seleclmen, or something less lhont0%.

There is no correlolion thol we could f¡nd behyeen lhe sizeof lhe lowns ond the size of its Boord of Selectmen.

PROCEEDINGS ADJOURNED ANNUAT TOWN MEETING

Morch ll, 1970

lhe Moderotor colled the meel¡ng to order ot 8:10 p.M. inthe [incoln-Sudbury Regionol High School Auditorium onddeclored lhol o quorum wos presenl.

_ Consent wos gronted lhol Altorney Alberl euery of Wolpolebe permitted to sit ¡n the holl ond oddress lhe meeting inconneclion with Article 37.

lrlícle 24: To see if the Town will vote lo omend Article l,Section I of the By-lows of the Town of Sudbury by deletinglhe word "Morch" lherein ond subslituling lherefor the worJ"April", or ocl on onything relolive lhereto.Submitled by Petition.

After moking lhe moin molion under lhe orlicle (see vote),Mr. John Powers reported to the meeling for the petitionersos follows:

For mony yeors we hove gone through our onnuol eleclionsond lown meelings in probobly the world's worse weotherseoson. When lhe originol lown meetings were esloblishedin the ló00's, ond on through the 1700,s ond lg00,s, it woslhe besl lime of yeor for lhe former. He could not plonl, ondhe hod repoired everything he could. Morch eleclions ondtown meerings helped to poss the lime of doy since lhe for_mers hod nolhing beller lo do.

Sudbury is no longer o forming sociely. Blizzords, wilh theirdriving condilions, hove coused terrible siluolions for us,porliculorly ot eleclions. lhose of you who voted this yeornoled lhot only 53% of the voters showed up ond 47 % didnol moke it to lhe polls ol oll. One of lhe reosons for lhis woslhe extremely hozordous condition of fhe roods. This wos olriol, porticulorly for the older people.

ïhe yeor before on election doy we hod l2-ló inches ofsnow ond there were enlire oreos of lhe Town which were nolplowed oul moking il impossible for those people to get oulto lhe polls.

lf we move lhe eleclion ond town meeling to April, we willnol only hove better weolher, bul lhere will ãlso be one moremonlh for beller preporolion by the boords ond comm¡ilees.As you con see in reoding your worronl report, mony of theissues corry with lhem the folol words, "Report lo be modeot lhe meeling". lt would help improve our preporolion forthe meeting if we could study lhe reports of lhe boords ondcommiltees oheod of time.

. We_ore probobly going to go lhis yeor lo the fiscol yeor of

lhe Commonweollh. When the finol touches ore put on lhisby the legisloture, the Town will be ono fiscol yeor of July lstlo June 30th. Moving the meet¡ng to April will bring it closerto thot time ond moke preporolion o lillle more meoÀingf ul.

. ln oddition, on April meel¡ng will give us the odvontoge ofknowing whot hos hoppened in the collective borgoininjwithemployees in lhe surrounding lowns.

For oll of lhese reosons, I urge you lo occepl whol is ol_lowed under the Generol Lows, ond help our citizens el¡m¡.nole os much of lhe obslocle course lo good governmenl osnolure hos provided in Morch. Lel us hold eleclions ond townmeeling in lhe sun in April.

Çomgillee on Town Administrotion Reporh (Mr. Henry Smith)lhe Committee on Town Adm¡nisrto¡ãn cãnsìdered th¡s ort¡cleond voted lo loke no officiol position with respect lo fovoringor opposing il. However, we felt it wos incumbenl upon uslo point oul some shortcomings to the April dote for holdingtown meeling.

The April lSth income tox deodline would undoubtedly comeduring lhe period in which town meeting wos being held. lrwill be on inconvenience lo the cilizens ond to the profes-sionols who work very long hours ot lhis time of yeor pre-poring lox relurns.

Also, Polríofs' Doy occurs in April ond Possover ond Eoslermight inlerfere with the oltendonce of some of our cilizens.

. ïhe possibility of region-wide eleclions is beíng discussed.

lf lhis were to become o reolity, we moy hove io hold oureleclions on lhe some doy os Lincoln,s election. This wouldprobobly involve o second chonge in the scheduling of townmeeting. We leel it would be better to hold off voting of-firmolively on lhis orticle for ot leost onolher yeor until wesee whol hoppens with respecl to region-wide elections.

While il is true thot lhe originol custom of town meelingsin Morch wos lo occommodote lhe formers, it seems to 6egenerolly lrue lhot lhe overoge cilizen is not too busy ol thislime of yeor. ln April, people ore working on liille leogueond other orgonizol¡ons, or working in their gordens.

Losl yeor we hod lhe lorgest snow slorm on record iuslprior lo lhe opening of Town Meeting, but th¡s holl wos filled,ond on the firsl session we hod to open o second room. Thisyeor lhere wos oboul o holf inch of snow, ond the meet¡ngwos not filled. The ofiendonce depends more upon lhe conlro-versy of lhe orlicles thon on lhe weolher.

lf we held our meelings ofter olher towns, il might be con-sidered o serious disodvontoge for colleclive borgoining.There would be strong pressure on lhe Personnel Boord lomoke ils decisions on the bosis of whol hoppened in otherlowns, on externol influence, wh¡ch is probobly nol on od-vonloge to lhe Town.

Iown Counsel Reporf ll is my opinion thot if lhe By-lowomendment þroþõlãd in Article 24 in the Worronr foi the1970 Annuol Town Meeting is odopted under o proper molionby the Town Meeling it will become o volid omendment tothe Sudbury By-lows.

Following losl yeor's Town Meeling, mony people in Town

The Finonce Commillee questioned lhe need for some of lheclossrooms. (See cross-holched oreo on Diogrom 5.) However,th¡rly-six clossrooms would be required for o 900 sludentschool lo meet lhe S.B.A.B. stondord of twenty-five sludenlsper clossroom. Four clossrooms will be used for lhe specioleducolion closses, moking it possible lo hondle oll of thespeciol closses in one oreo.

After considering this ond lhe requiremenl of the S.B.A.B.

for slole oid, the Finonce Committee hos ogreed to supportthe entire oddition, including the f ive questioned clossrooms.

The lotol building will hove forly clossrooms, lhe odditioncontoining 47,ó25 squore feet.

Another foclor lhot convinced lhe Finonce Commitlee of thewisdom of occepling lhe queslioned f ive clossroonrs wos lheollernole bid. The oreo of lhese rooms is oboul ó,048 squorefeet. The totol bid could be reduced by $ I I 1,000 if we leovelhem out. This figures oul lo o cosl of oboul s22,000 perroom or 5 ì8.35 per squore fool.

We should underslond the size of the building. Bosed upono ,hirly-six clossroom building, lhe S.B.A.B. requiremenls oftwenly-five sludenls per room gives o 900 sludenl copocity.The School Commillee ilself uses o guideline of twenly-sevensludents per room giving o tolol copocily of 972 students. lflhe Town grows foster lhon expected, we could relocole lhespeciol closses giving us four more rooms.

Legislolion hos been inlroduced lhis yeor by RepresentoliveMcCorlhy of Wokef ¡eld lo chonge lhe presenl formulo whichhos increosed our cost lrom 5407 in l9ó5 lo 530,000 thisyeor. Nexl yeor lhe cosl is eslimoled to be 541,000. However,lhe eslimote for this yeor wos S 17,000, ond it come throughon the Cherry Sheel ot s30,000.

lorn presently on o comm¡tlee with the MBTA to sludy theossessmenl forn:ulo ond to moke suggestions to lhe MBTAAdvisory Boord to relieve the pressure of toxes on lownssuch os Sudbury which do nol receive ony services from thed ¡ strict.

I feel, however, thot for future growth we should possiblybe in lhe MBTA Dislricl os port of the melropoliton oreo.There is o plonned expension of the MBTA inlo Frominghomond plonned f eeder lines to the stolion in Frominghom.

I wish you would supporl this motion which still gives theSeleclmen o chonce to moke o decision on their own whenwe report to lhenr lhe result of lhe sludy now underwoy.

However, thereshould be somerelotionship between the exlenl of our porlicipolion ond theservice we ore provided in relurn. We do not know how thelegisloture will reocl to this.

This orlicle requesls o zoningchonge from o residence dislrict lo o limited business dislricl.

AcrossRoute 20 is on induslriol zone, lhen severol business zonesond onother industriol zone. The subiecl porcel is in focl onislond surrounded by business purposes ond business uses.

We chose lo requesl o límited business dislrictbecouse welhought il wos lhe leost thing thot we could osk this townmeeling to opprove commensurole with whot we wonled lodo with this porcel.

According to your Town Report lhere ís o forecosl for opopulolion increose from 13,500 lo 19,500 in the nexl tenyeors.

We think thol lhe reclossificolion lhol we ore proposing isin line with whot lhe mosler plonner suggested, with thechorocter of the neighborhood. lt is in keeping with whot theTown requires for its welfore ond lor itsgrowlh. ll is necessoryin view of the populolion forecosl ond in view of the chongingcondilions of the whole downtown oreo.

The Plonning Boord f¡nãs ilself in odifficult position in regord lo this orticle.

Thus, the queslion is: How much lond should be zoned busi-ness ond where?

.Concerning the lond in this orticle, the Boord opposes ochonge in zoning ol th¡s time for lhe following r.uoroni,'

l. Some of lhe odjocent oreos ore residentiol in chorocterond need to be protecled.

2. There ore other oreos in Town more suitoble for lhislype of building.

THE AMEñICAII LE6'OT{

After moving in the words of lhe orlicle, Mr. Ronold Griffinof the Americon legion reporled for the Petilioners os follows:

The Americon Legion, on orgonizolion composed mostly oflocol men, hos been in Sudbury for the post fifly yeors. Pres-enlly we ore locoled on lhe Boslon Posl Rood ot Slone Rood.(See Plon), From o smoll group we hove grown into onorgonizolion of 125 men in lhe lost four yeors.

The present home is much loo smoll for lhe membershipond lhe oclivities we ore underloking on beholf of lhe PopWorner Footboll ond the Little Leogue boseboll here in Sud-

bury. These oclivilies ore growing every yeor, ond theydeserve oll lhe help we con give them. ln oddilion, we oredirectly involved wilh the CAP codets, o mixed orgonizolionof boys ond girls.

The llogpole ín front of lhe Town Holl wos olso o gift fromthe Legion, ond we would like to conlinue olong similor lines.We hove no intenlion of moving or selling. Jusl being onossel lo the Town is enough. Communily proiects ond porlici-potion ore our gool.

Plonning Boord Reporl: (Mr. Eben Stevens) The PlonningBoord hos previously opposed the inclusion of thís propertywithin Bus¡ness District *ó ond conlinues to do so now. The

Boord feels thot this oreo of lown is primorily residentíol inchorocler ond lhot furlher business developmenl in the loco-lion is unnecessory ond delrimenlol. Furthermore, while theAmericon Legion hos been o good neighbor ond is nol o busi-ness, circumstonces could occur forcing lhe Legion lo sellwh¡ch would ollow ony of the permitted business uses (e.g.,gos slol¡on, drive-in reslouronl, etc.) lo be developed.

The Boord prefers lo see lhe Americon Legion continue looperole under the vorionce ond lo seek ony chonges in usethrough the Boord of Appeols. We support their opplicotion

for renewol with reosonoble odditionol requesls. The PlonningBoord hos reviewed lheir vorionce opplicotion lo the Boord ofAppeols, ond we find some of the things thot they wont wesupport ond hove wrillen so in o letter. We feel lhot theiroclivities supporling lhe vorious Town olhlelic funclions doesnol require them to hove o business sile per se. We feel thevorionce is the besl woy under which lo operole.

the west lhere is on open form, ond the Roytheon properly.The entire oreo where lhese vehicles would be porked is

segregoled from residentiol zones by other commerciol zones,or by o proleclive screening of woodlonds.

Ïhe originol reslriclion wos pul into lhe By-low becouse ofthe school bus conlroversy some yeors ogo, bulwe do needsome reosonoble provision for the oulside porking of molorvehicl es.

One odditionol foctor lhol should be considered is lhot thesevehicles when goroged in lhis oreo will produce more loxrevenue. lf lhey hove lo be broughl in from lhe oulside, theywould produce odditionol troffic, ond we would lose lhe exciselox revenue.

Plonning Boord Report (Mr. Eben Stevens) The porking ofrotoñãFtcË;, *Fãiñãr. rhey be school buses or trutks, in theouldoors neor residenliol oreos, hos been o subiect for deboteseverol limes in the post few yeors, eilher ot Town Meelingor in relolion to sile plons for existing or proposed businesses.

The Plonning Boord hos vigorously opposed the outside slor-oge of o lorge number of vehicles. We were oll forced tooccepl the school bus porking solulion in 1967, ond mony ofus felt thot lhe solulion to the problem left much to bedesired.

Al lhe suggestion of lhe lnduslriol Developmenl Commis-sion, the Plonning Boord hos given considerol¡on to o possibleexception to lhis previously stoled disopprovol. The PlonningBoord hos ogreed to support on omendmenl which is beforeyou ond would ollow commerciol molor vehicles to be sloredoul of doors in Limiled lndustriol Districts provided such ve-hicles were porked more lhon o lhousond feelfrom lhe neor-esl residenliol oreo. The Plonning Boord feels thot even in osiluolion where residences might be ol o higher elevotion

lhon lhe porking oreo for vehicles, the dislonce would removelhe severe visuol impoct of this type of storoge.

The Plonnning Boord therefore supports this omendmenl tothe Zoning By-low.

Con s e r yo lion Comm ission..!94¡!' (Mrs. Mo rgo ret Long m u i r)

@ni describiig cleorli *hoithe Conservolion Commission hos in mind in presenting lheseorlicles, we wish lo discuss Arlicles 44 ond 45 togelher. Theseorlicles ore inseporoble ín intent.

We should first define whot we meon by the flood ploin.It is lond which is periodicolly flooded or wet. lt octs os onolurol sponge lo reloin woter wh¡ch would olherwise runoff quickly ond deluge oreos downslreom. ll releoses wotermore slowly during drier periods of lhe yeor lo lhe wolerloble, the source of deep wells for our Town woler supply.

lf lhe flood ploin oreos ore filled ond built on, lhe river is

chonneled inlo o norrower flow ond lhe sponge oreo is re-moved. lf lhe fill is for enough upslreom lhe houses on lhefill moy be perfeclly sofe. Bulthosedownslreom ore flooded.

lf developers ore ollowed to sell ond build on lond thot is

dry in August, but wet during the flood seoson, they hove lodo il by building houses on islonds of f ill. The fill oreo is h¡ghenough to hove o proper leeching field, but the filling re-moves oboul one-third of the woter-holding copocity of thelo nd.

152

lf filling conlinues lo occur os lhe Town grows, lhe wolertoble moy rise lo lhe poinl where leeching f¡elds wh¡ch wereonce sofe ore in the woter toble. This couses pollulion oflhe ground woler.

About one-fifth ol the Town of Sudbury is wellonds. Thereore four moior wolersheds ond four imporlont morsh oreos.These comprise o rich heritoge of on imporlonl resource,good woler.

Five Holch Act heorings here in Sudbury hove foiled lobring filling of wellonds lo o holt even lhough lhe Seleclmenond other Town boords recommended lo the Slote thol lheybe stopped. We hove found thot lhe Hotch Acl funclion is loregulote fill, rother thon lo slop it. lf we wish to stop suchfilling, we will hove to do it through locol zoning by-lows suchqs those proposed in Articles 44 ond 45.

ln lhese orlicles, we ore osking for Town Meeling opprovollo protect our present flood ploin better ond then loter to oddlo the presenl flood ploin the significont uplond slreoms ondmorshes.

Specif icolly, Article 44 osks lhe Town Meeting for permissionto omend the flood ploin mop which ¡s on file in the Town En-

gineer's office. The presenl mop indicotes the flood ploin os

obout 2,000 ocres olong the Sudbury River. While this coverstwo ol our moior morshes olong Pontry Brook ond olongWosh Brook ond protecls oll of the Sudbury River flood ploin,il leoves everylhing obove lhe l2SJoot conlourobove meon

seo level unprolecled. Our plon, if these two orlicles poss, is

lo produce o mop delineoting the odditionol oreos which

should be prolected for submission lo o fulure Town Meelingfor opprovol.

Article 45 describes lhe uses which moy be mode of lheprolecled flood ploin oreos. lt is very similor lo lhe woler-shed proleclion districl provisions possed by Woylond in 1967.While Woylond ond Sudbury ore two different lowns, concernssuch os f lood proleclion ond woler pollution should not merelystop ot the Town line. These ore regionol concerns ond should

be treoted os such,

Proper use of the flood ploin includes ouldoor recreolionoreos, boll fields, golf courses, os well os nolurol oreos forhiking, noture study, fishing ond hunting. Flood ploins offerprime woler ond soil condit¡ons for ogricullure, foreslry ondplont nurseries. They ore necessory for lhe conservolion ofsoil, plont ond wildlile.

We osk for your supporl of Articles 44 ond 45 to help pre-serve oreos from filling, building, excovoling ond dumping,ond for the fulure beouly of Sudbury.

Plonning Eoord Reporf (Mr. Richord Dovison) Neither of lheseãrtñC;=Fonges-wñA-wos in the exísting flood ploin ot oll.Article 44 only mokes il possible for you lo omend the floodploin in lhe fulure if you choose to do so. Bosicolly, it luslodds lhe words "os herelofore omended".

Article 45 spells oul lhe conditions of lhe zone lhot wouldgive lhe Town lhe conlrol where it now does not hove it.We hove hod very poor forlune with the Hotch Acl. ll hos

given us no help wholsoever, ond we would like lo hove itwithin lhe conlrol of our own Zoning By-low. This is verysimilor to whol Woylond hos done successfully.

We supporl both of lhese orlicles.

Iown Counsel Reporf lf this orlicle is volidly odopted undero proper motion it will become o volid omendment lo the

Mr. John Powers requesled thot discussion be ollowed onArlicle 4ó olong wilh Articles 44 ond 45 since 4ó hod to dowith funds for lhe engineering study required iÍ 44 ond 45possed.

The Moderotor onnounced lhol discussion on Article 4ówould be in order.

Mr. Powers lhen requested thot the Finonce Commilteereporl on Arlicle 4ó be given.

Fìnonce Commillee Reporl (Arlícle 46): (Mr. Deword Monzer)Article 4ó is inlended lo provide for on engineering surveyond mop of opproximotely one ond one-lhird miles olonglhe bonks of the Hop Brook between Peokhom Rood ond the

leoves oboul lhirtyJive miles of flood ploin to be surveyedond mopped. lf the work is done piecemeol, the cosl is nolvery predictoble.

The Finonce Commillee hos eslimoted the cosl might runin excess of s50,000. The Town Engineer hos provided theFinonce Commillee wilh on est¡mole of s29,000 for on oeriolsurvey of lhe Town which would provide fiveJoot conlours.ll is onlicipoted olso by lhe Town Engineer thot providingo mop giving twoJool conlours, sufficient for mopping lheflood ploin, would odd onother 55,000 to $ 10,000 to this esti-mole, moking the lotol oround $34,000 to $39,000 for lheoeriol survey.

Allhough the Finonce Commillee recogn¡zes lhe urgency,brought oul in the heorings with the Conservolion Commis'sion, of prolecling cerloin oreos of lhe Hop Brook flood ploin,we feel lhot lhe properopprooch to lhis iob is f¡rst to conducllhe oeríol survey of the enlire Town ond then loy out theflood ploin from lhol survey.

We would oppose lhe possoge of Article 4ó.

Mrs. Longmuir of lhe Conservolion Commission wos thenrecognized ond stoted lhot the Commission hos originollywonted to speok to oll three orlicles ot once. ll wos told otlhe Worront Review Meeling lhot it would not be ollowed todo so since Arlicle 4ó involved money. She further stoledthol os the proponenls of Article 4ó, the Commission shouldhove been ollowed lo speok fírst, ond requesled thot she beollowed to give lhe Conservolion Commission report onArticle 4ó.

The Moderotor osked her lo proceed.

Of the opproximotely sixty-one miles of streom in Town,roughly twenlyJive miles ore olreody protected by virlueof being in so-colled protected londs.

Thereore olso oreos in which we hove conservolion reslriclions.

This gives us obout 40% proteclion of lhe sixly-one runningmiles of slreom in Town. Of whot is left roughly one-holfcould be mopped on foot by volunleers ond the lond ownersconcerned. We would do this by consen, of the lond owners,ond lo lh¡s end we osk for volunleers lo sign up ot lhismeeling,

The remoining sixteen miles or less, where the streomscover consideroble wetlond oreos, moy hove lo be done bysurvey. We will nol know until we get oul ond wolk lhroughthe lond.

Since much of the upper porlions of Hop Brook ore olreodyprolecled, ond mosl of lhe resl of ¡t obove Peokhom Roodcon be done by volunteers ond obullors, il seems logicol lofinish lhe Hop Brook oreo by survey from soulh of PeokhomRood to the f lood ploin.

The initiol specificolions prepored by the Regionol BuildingCommiltee, bosed upon the recommendolions of vorious de-porlmenls ot the school, ore still under considerotion by lheRegionol Commiltee. The Finonce Committee feels thot thetolql inclusion of lhese recommendolions would greotly exceedthe two ond one-holf million dollor guideline wh¡ch we feelshould be o high side limit.

However, we hove been ossured thot the Regionol Com-miltee consensus ol ils Morch 3, 1970, meeling wos to re-offirm the guidelines, ond lhol lhey feel unoble to proceedwilhout this plonníng money.

tINCOtN SUDBURY REGIONAL SCHOOL DISTRICTCOMMITTEE

Lowrence H. HomonNormon C. RosmussenWolter J. SolmonWilliom T. MoloneyFrederick P. WolkeyHenry M. Morgon

Submitted by Lincoln Sudbury Regionol School District Com-mitlee.

Regionol District School Commiflee Report: (Dr. WilliomMoloney) This orlicle provides for o s¡x r.ember committee,two members to be elected eoch yeor by regionol electionprelerobly to be held ot the some lime os ond in conjunclionwith the lown election.

The issues involved ore very simple ond hove lo do withrepresenlolion. The originol conlrocl between lhe lowns wosdrown up ot o lime when they were oboul equol in size, ondil provided lhol eoch town would elect lhree men.bers of lheRegionol District School Con'n'illee. Populotions ond t¡meshove chonged. By olmosl ony meosure, this proporlion ofrepresenlotion is no longer oppropriole.

ln oddilion, the United Slotes Supreme Court hos decidedlhol in dislr¡cts such os ours, eoch person's vole must counlos n'uch, insofor os proclicol, os ony other person's.

The question is whelher to chonge lhe representolion or loleove il os il is.

The Regionol Commillee is involved in o politicol discussionbetween the towns for two reosons. First, the Regionol DistriclConmillee is lhe defendont in two suits brought questioninglhe currenl represenlotion. Secondly, there ore educotionol

ospects involved.

Ïhe uncerloinly resulting fron. the presenl siluolion doesnot moke il eosy for us lo lind compelent, copoble coreerpeople, ond lhe friction between lhe towns con evenluollycreole divisions in the Regionol Commiilee olthough il hosnot up to th¡s time. The exislence of courl l¡tigolion ond otheruncerlointies moke it very dilficult to develop on orderly ondeconon'icol plon for the fulure.

The Regionol Commitlee hos voted unonimously lo submilthis orticle to the lowns. Five oul of six committee nembersslrongly support il for the following reosons. First, il is theideol denocrotic solulion. Eoch n.on's vole is slrictly equol toevery olher mon's vole. Second, il is o permonenl solution,Populolion chonges will not produce reopportionment whichrroy inlerrupt o n'.ember's lerm of office. lt will resolve lhepend¡ng lit¡gotion once ond for oll, ond, most importontly, lheemphosis shifts to regionol cooperolion ond owoy from lown-town confrontolion.

The Regionol Commillee urges you lo vole yes on Arlicle l.We feel it is o foir ond denocrotic solution, good for lheRegion ond good for Sudbury.

Eegionol ,þgree¡nent Study Committee Report: (Mr. PoulBeolly) The purpose of the study connillee hos been toinvestigole ond lo reconn'.end revisions in lhe Region HighSchool Agreement wh¡ch will be in lhe interesls of lhe Townsof Sudbury ond Lincoln. Since infornotion on historicol high-lights hos been given oul, o lengthy development of lhen.olters which hove led up to our siluolion will be omitted.One evenl, however, should be noled becouse it hos plocedthe region ond our sludy con'.n'illee in o position where meresludy ond recommendolions ore no longer sufficienl. Someocl¡on musl be token.

Prior lo the firsl r.eeting of our sludy committee, the Sud-bury Seleclmen ond o group of Sudbury loxpoyers onnouncedlhol they inlended to file suit ogoinst the Town of Lincoln ondogoinst lhe region for lhe purpose of delermining whether lheprinciple of one-n'on, one-vole is opplicoble lo the regionond to lhe seleclion of members of lhe school commiilee.Those suils were f iled lost October.

Bond counsel to lhe region hos stoled lhol, becouse suchl¡ligotion ploces in issue the legol volidity of the RegionolSchool Commíllee os now constituled, ¡n oll likelihood bondsplonned lo be issued ond sold by the region in l97l for thepurpose of finoncing the conslruclion of o proposed odd¡l¡onto lhe hlgh school connot be sold unlesslhe litigolion is settledor disn.issed.

We hove recor.nended ond we do now recommend to theTown of Sudbury thot lhe regionol ogreement be omendedso lhol oll members of the Regionol School Commiltee shollbe elected from lhe region ol lorge. This so-colled region-wideeleclion plon wos conceived by our study conn.illee, wos re-seorched by us os to feosibility, ond wos recommended lo ourconterporl commiltee in Lincoln. ln June of lhis yeor, theLincoln Speciol Town Meeting opproved the omendment whichis before you os Article I in lhe worronl.

ll is our opinion thol Sudbury derives bolh educotionol ondfinonciol odvonloges by being o n.ember of lhe Lincoln-Sudbury region. We believe thol it is desiroble for Sudburylo conlinue to be o menber of lhe region ond thot the re-gionol high school continue lo exisl.

lf lhe region is lo function snoothly ond if it is lo conlinuelo provide lhose odvonloges which we believe ore inherentin lhe region, lhen some procticol solution to the current im-poss must be found. Unless o solution occeptoble to bothSudbury ond Lincoln is found, we con expect the currenl litigo-l¡on lo cont¡nue ol leost onolher þo or lhree yeors. The pro-posed region-wide eleclions seem lo us to be lhe only procli-col olternolive ovoiloble to lhe region.

We feel thot such o method is porticulorly odvonlogeous toSudbury ond yel beneficiol lo the region becouse lhe nem-

t70

bers of lhe Regionol School Con nittee would hove lhe educo-tion of oll sludents who ollend the high school os their primeond undiluted responsibility. lhe region-wide elections n.eeldireclly ony conslitutionol one-ry.on, one-vole obiections, nolonly lhose roised in lhe currenl l¡ligotion bul olso lhose which

moy be roised in lhe future.

The third considerotion which fovors region-wide eleclionis o finonciol one. ll is lhe policy of the Corr.r.onweolth lopromole regionolizolion by providing lowns which ore mer.-bers of school regions substonliol onounts of stole finqncioloid over ond obove the oid such lowns would otherwisereceive.

Rejeclion of lhe proposed omendment will nol result in onyimmediole cut in slole oid to the Town of Sudbury not will itresult in lhe immediole dissolulion of the region. However,if lhe proposed omendnenl is nol odopled by Sudbury, theregionol ogreenent will nol be omended ot leosl in lhe neorfulure, lhe represenlolion on lhe School Con.niltee will re-moin ol the present lhree-lhree represenlolion ond litigotionnow pending ogoinst lhe region will probobly conlinue.

Al best such protrocled lit¡gotion ond uncerloinly will pre-vent lhe region from roising public debl finoncing neededfor lhe orderly ond efficient developmenl of lhe high school,will force the School Commillee to odopl stop-gop meosuresto meel ocule problems os lhey orise, ond will result ¡n lheinefficient ond ol times wosteful use of lhose funds whichore ovoiloble.

ll should be emphosized thot lhe choice is nol betweenregion-wide eleclions ond so-colled proportionol represento-lion by fornulo. The choice is region-wide elections or noon.endmenl lo the regionol ogreen.enl ot oll. However, be-couse of lhe expressed preference of sone for proportionolrepresenlolion by fornulo, fhose reosons set forlh in ourreporl os lo why we believe region-wide eleclions ore prefer-oble lo proporlionol represenlolion by formulo will be ouþI i ned.

Any forn.ulo of opporlioning represenlolion on lhe SchoolCommillee occording lo populotion, voting populolion, orstudenl populolion would require reodiuslnenl of lhe repre-sentotion wilh eoch increnenlol shift in populolion betweenlhe two towns. Such conl¡nu¡ng reod¡uslment would deslroylhe stobility of the School Commillee.

The representolion on lhe School Con.nitlee which wouldbe produced by such formulo would tend lo polorize policydecisions olong lown lines, rolher lhon olong regionol linesond thus reduce lo o secondory considerolion the quolity ofeducolion being offered ot the high school.

Any such formulo would still be open for chollenges inlhe courls on lhe bosis thot il is nol responsive enough lolhe one-mon, one-vole principle.

The sludy con n ¡llee hos considered rhe effect of the currenllitigot¡on ogoinst lhe region if region-wide eleclions ore nolopproved. Nothing is less certoin thon how the SupremeCourt is going to decide on o moller of conslilulionol low.Presumobly lhe court could do just whol the plointiffs hoveosked, thol is, decree thot the presenl opportionment of lheSchool Commillee is involid. The court will olso presumoblytell us lo devise some onendment lo the ogreenent whichis consislenl w¡lh the one-mon, one-vote principle. lt will sl¡llbe up lo lhe Towns of Sudbury ond Lincoln lo devise onoppropriote onendmenl. Whichever porly loses in theFederolDislrict Courl will probobly oppeol lo the First Circuit Courl ofAppeols ond wh¡chever porty loses there will seek ¡udiciolreview fron lhe Supreme Court. Therefore, in

.l973 or 1974,when lhe liligol¡on hos finolly come lo on end, the SchoolCommillee will be composed of three members from Sudburyond three menbers from Lincoln. Assuming thot lhe ploinliffshove been successful, lhe courts will hove lold bolh lownslhot the School Corr.nitlee is involidly consliluled. The onlyprocticol difference belween our sítuotion in .l973 or 1974ond in June, l9ó9, w¡ll be lholwe hove wosted o greot deol

ol time, ellorl ond r.oney on stop-gop meosures ond theRegionol High School will hove linited olong in lhe nosl in.efficienl foshion probobly lo lhe greot detriment of the educo-tionol progron ond to lhe greot delrimenl of our childrenwho n.usl rely on thot educotion.

Finonce Commiflee Report (Mr. Clifford Pontbriond) The

Finonce Commillee believes lhe finonciol needs of lhe highschool con more fovorobly be served by clorifying lhe legolstotus of lhe regionol ogreemenl ond recommend possogeof this orticle lo ochieve this end.

Sudbury School Commillee Moiorily Reporl: (Dr. RobertHowell) A moiorily of lhe Sudbury School Commiltee supporlsArlicle l. Ours is nol, however, o unonimous posilion.

From o politicol poinl of view, we loo see region-wide elec-l¡ons os lhe only proclicol solulion lo lhe one-mon, one-voleissue. A vole in support of Article I lokes the question ofproporlionol represenlol¡on oul of lhe courls ond puts lhesolulion bock in the honds of lhe volers of bolh lowns, whereil rightfully belongs.

But lhe responsibility of our School Commillee loo is oneducolionol one, not o polilicol one. We see lhe eleclion oflhe Regionol School Commitlee by region-wide vole os lhelogicol firsl slep in on evolutionory process which w¡ll ulti-motely result in o unified regionol school syslem, cullingocross lhe Towns of Sudbury ond lincoln ond incorporolinggrodes K through 12,

We think o school commillee wh¡ch is elecled region widewill be more inclined lo lhink in lerms of lhe region os owhole ond less inclined to lhink olong lownor olong individuoleleclorote lines. Once the Regionol School Commiltee is doingthol, lhen lhe next direclion lheir thinking will logicolly tokeftem will be olong K-12 lines rolher lhon olong 9-12 lines.

A unif ied K-12 school system will resulf in the mosl effectiveeducotionol progrom for the children of the two lowns. Con-solidolion should olso resull in lhe eliminotion of duplicoteexpenditures. A vote for region-wide eleclions is o step inlhe direction lowords o lruly unif ied grode school system.

The Moderotor lhen onnounced lhol, becouse of the un-expected overflow, il hod become necessory to sel up lheLiÌtle Theotre os on ouxiliory town meeting holl. He oskedthot the record show thot this town meeling is being held intwo ploces, nomely the oudilorium of lhe [incoln-SudburyRegionol High School ond lhe Little Theolre of the [incoln-Sudbury Regionol High School. The two ploces ore connecledby meons of o public oddress system ond loudspeokers sothot lhe proceedings in both ploces moy be heord ond por-licipoled in by oll the volers presenl in bolh ploces.

Mr. Edword Krietsek wos lhen designoled os ossistont Moder-olor ond sworm lo the foilhf ul perf ormonce of his duties.

The Moderotor osked the lhe meeting relurn lo order ondonnounced lhot o quorum wos slill present.

Subury School Commiltee Minorîlv Reporl: {Mr. George F.

MocKenzie)You hove reod ond will heor tonight o greot deolof whol is ou couronllo coll rheloric. There oppeors lo be onob undonce.

We hove o brief ond succincl reporl of the minorily posilionon lhe School Commiltee, thol of Mr. Cron ond myself. Thevoled posilion on the School Commiltee wos lhree to twofovoring Article l.

You will heor from Mr. Bouder, o former choirmon of lheSchool Committee. ln oddilion, Mr. Bierig, o former choirmonof the Regionol District School Committee ogrees with us.Mr, Homon, o presenl member of the District Commiltee, olsoogrees with us,

We ore oll "old limers", relolively speoking, ond hove livedwith some of the problems.

Region-wide eleclions ore o nice lheorelicol promise ofsomelhing beoutifully pure. They do, however, block o com-

t71

mon school comm¡ltee in Sudbury, o school commillee longsought ofter by some of us wh¡ch would simply odministertwelve grodes of school os do most school commitlees.

Blockoge of o common school committee hos been on his.toricol problem. There hove been numerous occosions whenlots of little lhings ond mony big things hove not golten done.

It is significont lhot lhere ore seporote systems. When yourchildren leove grode B, they go to o ploce colled the Dislrict,o polilicol body creoted for odvonloges to both porlies. lnfoct il does hove odvontoges, ll goins oid of severol mostbenef¡ciol kinds from lhe slote. lt hos economy of scole inlerms of hiring, the deployment of speciolisls ond the oc-quisilion of focililies.

ll does hove rolher pronounced d¡fferences in some of itscomponenls, nomely, h#o lowns, one colled Sudbury, onecolled lincoln.

Lincoln, in reporting to lhe Stote, rother precisely sloled thotit hos no inlention of regionolizing kindergorlen through grodel2 wilh Sudbury now or ever. This regionolizolion would bemost benef iciol, most sensible. As on ollernolive, il furlherstoled lhot it would f irsl regionolize with the mililory school olHonscom in Bedford.

Ihe sloled reosons were lhol there wos o difference inphilosophy ond lhot Sudbury did not spend enough moneyto support its elementory schools. Therefore, tincoln wouldnol wish lo ossociole with Sudbury in regionolizing K through12.

Lincoln spends virluolly oll of ils elemenlory cosl per pupildifference in lhe so.colled speciol subiects. The core ocodemicprogroms in lhe elemenlory syslems ore virluolly ídenlicol.In focl, Lincoln mode o litlle bit more progress In getting ridof its grouping policy before Sudbury begon lo move in lhold ireclion.

The exomples of problems by not hoving o combined schoolsyslem ore legion. Ten yeors ogo we ollempted lo negol¡oleo combined bus fleet. Now, len yeors loler, il hos just hop.pened, primorily becouse lhe bus controclor ron oul of quoli-f ied dr¡vers ond indicoted thot if we did not do somethingto combine, the buses were nol go¡ng to run. We wenl fromf if tyJour to lhirty-seven buses which now, in ocombined singlefleel, tronsporl oll the children of Sudbury, oll the Sudburychildren of the high school ond mokes runs to Lincoln. Thiswill sove obout$40,000. or more. Over len yeors, lhis wouldhove soved obout 5330,000. Thol sovings would poy for thelibrory being requested tonight.

Boord of Selectmen Reporl: (Mr. Mortin E. Doyle) The issue ofrepresenrol¡on on lhe Lincoln-Sudbury Regionol High SchoolCommiltee is one lhot hos been studied by mony commillees.We hove heord from severol members of eoch of lhesecomm¡llees.

The generol consensus over lhe yeors hos been lhol oschool commitlee giving o more proportionole shore of lherepresentql¡on would be equitoble. Following the 1970 TownMeeting when Lincoln foiled to vole on this issue, lhe Boordof Selectmen soughl relief from the problem by osking theFederol Dislrict Courl for o declorolory judgment. This is noto suit ogoinst our neighbor Town of Lincoln os mony qssume.ll is, however, o request lo hove the court rule on lhe issueond instrucl bolh towns occordingly. ln view of the siluolion,it is lherefore imporlont lhot the Boord of Seleclmen presentils viewpoint to lhe Town on this issue,

ll is lhe unonimous opinion of the Boord of Seleclmen lhotregion-wide eleclions ore o volid ond reosonoble onswer lothe problem, ond should lhe Town vole to omend lhe ogree-menl occordingly we would occept lhis os direclion from theTown. We would, therefore, hove our pelition held in obey-once unlil such lime os the Generol Court opproved the oc-tion loken by both lowns ¡n omending their ogreemenl. Atlhot time we would withdrow the petition.

lhe Moderolor then onnounced lhot he would recogn¡ze f ivegentlemen who hod requesled recognilion in o pre-orronged

speok¡ng order in occordonce with lhe by-low odopted ot lhe1970 Annuol Town Meeting.

Mr. Gordon Thomos: We rise to oppose region-wide eleclionsbecouse we feel lhey will creote three problems for Sudburyin the yeors oheod.

Firsl, under region-wide eleclions, o determined minoritycon vole in o block ond goin mojority conlrol.

Second, lhere ore slrong differences between Sudbury ondtincoln which will encouroge Lincoln lo become lhot deter-mined minority.

Third, Lincoln's own long term plon under region-wide elec-tions will force Sudbury into o permonenlly split school sys-lem wilh two educotionol philosophies ond hryo schoolcommillees.

We wish lo exomine lhese three problems ond show whyproporlionol represenlotion which the courls will quickly im-pose if we vole "No" on lhis orlicle con solve oll lhreeproblems.

Under region-wide elections eoch lown voles on oll condi-doles for lhe School Commiltee. Under proportionol repre-sentolion, or some form of it, eoch lown voles seporotelyfor its own represenlolives on the School Commitlee. Thenumber of represenlolives for eoch lown depends upon lhenumber of registered volers, being lodoy four for Sudburyond two for Lincoln. Both opprooches sotisfy lhe SupremeCourl's requirement of one-mon, one-vole, but thol require-menl is nol whot is oll imporlonl here.

Our region is split, hoving hro seporole toxpoying unils,two seporole lowns, Region.wide elections connol guoronteeeilher toxpoying un¡l or town o foir voice on the School Com-mittee. You could hove on oll-Sudbury commillee, on oll-Lincoln commillee, on even splil, or ony combinolion, wilhoulregord for which town hos lhe most children or lhe leost.By conlrost, proportionol represenlotion would be direcllyreloted lo lhe lown populotion.

Lincoln wonls region-wide eleclions. Theír regionol ogree-ment study comm¡llee members sloled ot the Lincoln TownMeeling losl June lhot Lincoln will be the swing vole in theschool election ond will hove o greol deol to do wilh howlhe election goes. Quite o slotemenl for o minorily lown lomoke.

A swing vole is one ¡n wh¡ch o minorily group voles os omossive single block knowing thot the rest of the volers willprobobly splil between condidotes. For exomple, two menore running, one from Sudbury, one from lincoln. Sudburysplits ils vole down lhe middle, 2700 votes for eoch mon.Lincoln votes in o block, giving 2400 voles for lheir mon. Hewins by qlmost two.lo.one.

Sudbury con do this too, in theory, bul in proclice we neverhove. Sudbury elections in lhe post hove been lively, slronglydivided on issues. Lincoln condidoles usuolly run unopposed.

The key here is thot Sudbury ond Lincoln ore two verydifferent towns. Lincoln is keenly owore of this difference ondwill use it lo dominote lhe Regionol School Commillee if wehove region-wide elections.

Mr. R. Maynord Morshall: Sudbury populolíon exceeds lhol@ne rolio. Sudbury voters versusLincoln voters ore over o two-lo-one rotio. Sudbury sludentsoccount Íor 77 % of the enrollmenl ol lhe Lincoln-SudburyRegíonol High School. Sudbury poys 9293 per voler, Lincolnpoys 5 195, ond yet Sudbury currenlly hos 50% representol¡onon lhe School Commillee.

Sudbury hos grown since 1954 when lhe two towns werelhe some. The influx ol new residenls from oll over lhe stoleond nolion hos creoled o lorge lurnover in populolion. Sud-

bury's divergenl populolion is primorily middle-of-the-rood.Eleclions ore spirited ond close.

Lincoln's populotion hos been sloble over the lost fifteenyeors. They hove hod o lorge lurnoul in their eleclions. They

172

hove followed lhe issues quite closely. Their locol condidotesin focl ore quite often unopposed. Their volersvole os o block.

Lincoln property volues ore high per copilo. Their finonciolcopocity per studenl exceeds Sudbury's by 49oÁ. lhis meonsthot Sudbury poys more per copilo ond Sudbury cilizens stroinhorder linonciolly. Lincoln con offord elegonce in educotion.Iincoln wonts region-wide eleclions ond they know thot theirblock of voles will corry lhe doy in selecling lheir SchoolCommitlee.

Foilure lo hove o good school commiltee so for hos resulledin o loss of sovings in the cosls of superinlendent's solories.The lhree super¡nlendenls, nomely, Sudbury, Lincoln, ondthe Region, cosl s72,000. lf we hod one superintendentpoid os is the Newton superintendent il wouldcosl S40,000.

The onswer to lh¡s ¡s proporlionol representol¡on os indicoted.

We conducted o survey lhis summer of 878 fomilies hovingsludents in the h¡gh school. We osked ,he question, "Do youprefer region-wide or proportionol represenlolion?" The on-swer wos o very slrong two to one in fovor of proporlionolrepresenlotion.

Mr. H. Stewort Dickson: ln the eorly fifties Sudbury hod itso*n-ÏEñffioã1.-Iñcoln sent its siudents to Coniord ondWeslon on o tuition bosis, When lhese towns could no longeroccommodole Lincoln sludenls, regionolizotion wos discussedwith severol towns including Sudbury. The result forthe formo-tion of the Regionol High School in l9ó4.

Some yeors loter it become opporent thot mony of lheeorly condilions no longer existed. Sudbury's town populo-lion ond more imporlontly, our high school populolion wosincreosing ol o foster role lhon Lincoln's. To mony in Sudbury,the equol represenlolion on lhe Regionol Commillee seemedinconsistent with lhe focl lhot shoring of lhe cosls lo operolethe school wos bosed on eoch Town's porlion of the highschool populolion.

ln l9óó, loinl study commillees were formed lo delermineif lhe ogreement could be omended to correcl lhis siluotion.However, lhe commillees were oble lo ogree on only one oflhe inequilies, thot of lhe odiustment of stole oid oppliedtoword bonding inleresl. By 1967, the number of Sudbury'syoung people ottend¡ng the h¡gh school far exceeded thenumber from [incoln, However, lhe composition of the Region-ol CommilÌee remoined lhe some - equol.

Al both l9ó8 Annuol Town Meelings eoch lown voted toform o second joint study committee. This commiltee ogreedthot ony recommendolions formuloled by lhis group wouldbe voled upon by eoch lown. The sludy commillee reochedo proportionol ogreemenl consisling of eighl members, fivefrom Sudbury, lhree from Lincoln. ln Morch l9ó9, Sudburyvoted lo occepl lhe sludy commitlee's recommendotion. lnMorch of lhe some yeor, Lincoln did not bring lhis recom-mendolion lo o vole os ogreed but substiluted ond possed omolion lo set up onolher sludy commiltee,

lote in the evening ol o Speciol Town Meeling in June ofl9ó9, wiú under 400 voters in ottendonce, Sudbury olsovoted by o very norrow morgin of twelve votes to estoblishonolher sludy commillee.

As o result of Sudbury's mony hisloricol voles, il wos ob-vious lhot lhe lownspeople desired proportionol represenlo-lion. Lincoln's foilure lo vole on lhe meosure os ogreedcreoted o dilemmo.

Mony Sudbury c¡tizens felt thot the only logicol woy toresolve this d¡lemmo wos to pel¡tion the courls for o decloro-tory iudgmenÌ regording the conslilulionolity of lhe slruclureof the Regionol School Committee.

Region-wide elections will prohibit or deler common com-míllee membership ond ìhereby prohibit o single coordinoledtwelve yeor school system, simply becouse the Lincoln SchoolCommillee, ond I believe, lhe Town of Sudbury, is opposedto o ioinl K through l2 system.

The Finonce Com-mittee furlher feels thol this plonning should be expedited solhot firm b¡ds will be ovoiloble for discussion ond review be-fore the nexl Annuol Town Meeting ond not brought up ot ospeciol meeting.

Finonce Commiffee Mìnorily Reporl: (Mr. Phillips B. Hunl, Jr.)

@ urges you lo vote "yes';on lhis orlicle presenled by lhe Regionol Commiltee ond dis-opprove lhe plonning money.

ln orriving ot our posilion, we considered two moior foclors,the size ond cosl of lhe proposed oddition, ond lhe urgencybosed upon current foclors, We ore osked lo consider on od-dition lo occommodole on increose in sludenl populolion from1,800 to 2,100 sludenls. The opproximolesizeofth¡s odd¡tionos proposed will be oboul 50,000 squore feel.

losl yeor, ot the Annuol Town Meeling, lhe Finonce Com-mittee supporled lhe Regíonol School Commitlee's requeslforinitiol plonning money. However, lhis wos bosed upon lheirossuronce lhot lheywoutduse o 52,500,000 upper limit guide-line in plonning the oddition lo th¡s building. This figure wosbosed upon our experience w¡lh two building progroms loslyeor ¡n the Sudbury Schools, porticulorly the Curtis JuniorHigh School becouse of its similority in size ond scope. Atlhe Curtis, the oddition wos to house on odd¡tionol 225 slv-denls, ond the cosl wos oboul one million dollors.

We do recognize lhot lhere were cerloin other bosic prob-lems in plonning the oddition otthe region. One of lhese wosthe sewoge problem, Another wos lhe mointenonce work lobe done. We olso onlicipoled o rise in building costs.

It seems hord to believe, in our opinion, lhol these foclorscould possibly occount for on increose of S 1,850,000 over lhecost of building the Curlis Junior High School.

We hove tried lo determine from the ovoilqble informotionlhe number of exisling rooms ond lhe rooms proposed, lhesquore footoge ossocioled wilh eoch of these oreos, ond lhecosl ossocioled with the plonned oddition.

Upon deloiled invesligotion, the following oreos oppeorquestionoble ond perhops disproportionote lo lhe lotol coslof the oddition: the field house ot s525,000, lockers ondshowers ot 9276,000, lhe power mechonics shop ol S ¡ 19,000,lhe orl progrom o15224,000, ond the lecture holl ot S/2,ggg.

Whol struck us lhe mosl ond coused us lo question lheseoreos wos lhe foct lhot their lolol cosl represenled 5 l,2ló,000of the oddition, or 42.6% of the totol cosl. ln o sense, youmight coll these non-educotionol oreos.

ln going o slep further, jusl exomining one of lhese oreos,lo see whol could possibly be done, we took o look ot thephysicol educotion progrom. The presenl policy ol the School

176

Commillee is lhol eoch sludent should receive lhree síxlyminule periods of physicol educolion per week. On lhis bosis,on odditionol firee teoching slolions or o tolol of seven wouldbe needed, However, if, insteod of over-buildingby 25% toprovide four odditionol stolions, we under-built by 25% ondslightly modified the physícol educolion progrom, o reduclionin lhe cosl of over 9400,000 would result.

We do nol feel thot ít is lhe funclion of lhe Finonce Com-miltee lo tell the School Commiltee how to build o school,bul we feel thol we should queslion oreosof lhis size. lf o lookwere token ol olher oreos withín this oddition, perhops furlhereconomies could be reolized.

Goodnow Librory frustees' Report: (Mr. George D. Mox) Onehundred ond eight yeors ogo John Goodnow's bequest to theTown of Sudbury brought o public librory here. The originoloctogonol building wos ougmenled by lwo oddilions prior to1900, both finonced from trust fund ¡ncome. ln 1957 ochildren's room renovoted from unfinished bosemenl spocerequíred lhe firsl Town oppropriotion for librory construclion,o modesl s15,000. These oreos served the Town well ondproved odequole for librory service during lhe long yeorswherein Sudbury's growth wos relolively stolic.

Since 1955 hundreds of fomilies hove settled, buílt ondodded to the populolion, ond continue to do thot. All publicservices, schools, proleclive deporlmenl, recreolion, highwoy,hove hod lo increose to meel the demonds ond needs ol theTown. One ogency olone, lhe librory, hos not increosed ilsfocilities ond service copobil¡ties even in o minimol woy.

Well owore of the def¡clencies in the librory progrom ondmindful of their responsibilities os on elecled body designotedby lhe Town lo provide odequote librory services, lhe Good-now librory Truslees ¡n l9ó0 begon whot wos lo become oquixotic quesl for new ond enlorged librory spoce. For tenyeors, lhe librory problem hos been before the Town in onewoy or onolher. ln 1967 lhe studies ond plons of seven yeorsresulted in o proposed new Goodnow Librory on lhe Town-owned Neelon property ol the Town Cenler. Thot proiect didnol receive your support. Wholever moy be orgued oboulthe deficiencies of the site, it must be soid thot the projectwos sound ond forsighted. ll provided spoce notonly for im-med¡ole needs bul olso for the ultimole proiecled populolionof the Town.

One posilive foct cleorly emerged from the l9ó7 buildingprogrom, the recognilion ond occeplonce by lhe Town lhot itslibrory wos inodequote ond thot remediol oclion wosn ecelso ry.

The Trustees returned lo the Goodnow Librory ond plonnedfor o proclicol solution to this problem. A feos¡b¡lily sludywos mode ond preliminory skelches were developed wh¡chfeotured o fourlh oddition to Old Goodnow. A detoiled plonwos presenled lo you in l9ó9 os o three-step progrom.

You opproved this concepl ond entered into lhe progrom byon oppropriolion of Só,500 in plonning money. Agoin, in1970, yov reolfirmed your opprovol ol the direclion lokenby the Trustees by on oppropriotion of sì0,000 for furtherplonning money. Your vole in 1970 wos unonimous.

Heorlened by lhis strong evidence of foith ond supporl, theTruslees were oble to oct immediolely, ln April, fhe Mosso-chusetts Bureou of Librory Extension onnounced thot S 189,000of fiscol 1970 federol [unds were ovoiloble. Although the sumfor distribuÌion wos smoll ond lhe number of conlesling lownscerloin lo be lorge, the Truslees f¡led the formol opplicotion.Olher overriding foctors which influenced this decision werelhe uncertoinly of fulure federol funding in ony omounl ondlhe stipulotion of the Finonce Committee lhot no librory con-slruclion should be initioted unless federol funds wereovoiloble.

ln spite of lhe high odds ogoinst the gront coming to Sud-bury, we received o lenlolive gronl of 550,000, ond were sonot¡f¡ed in lote June. ln moking lhe gronl, the Stote LibroryCommissioners were impressed by the urgenl need for ex.ponded librory focilities here, by lhe odvonced slole of ourplons, lhe slrong support of lhe Town os reveoled by theoppropriolions of the lost two yeors, lhe support of lhe Selectmen ond the Finonce Committee, ond lhe certificotion by theSeleclmen thot o speciol lown meeting would be colled ¡neorly foll to occepl the gront ond lo oppropriote lhe necessoryfunds for the complelion of the project.

This tenlolive gronl becomes o firm commitment of theBureou of Librory Exlension only if this meeting opproveso molion under this orlicle. This is lhe third ond finol slep,lhe octuol conslruclion, in the librory building progrom. Thisgront opplies lo lhis odd¡l¡on bosed onlheplons ond estimoledcosls submilted lo the Librory Bureou. lt connol be oppliedto ony olher plon ot ony olher time. lt connol be held overlo lhe nexl Annuol Town Meeting. The s50,000 will poss toonolher town if it is nol secured tonight. The expeclolion offulure federol funding for librory construction is nol hopeful.

By using every nook ond cronny in Old Goodnow, we findo lolol of 3,800 squore feet. New conslrucllon of opproxi-motely 4,900 squore feel on hvo levels wilh o new moin en-lronce, olher enlronces ond sloirs will provide opproximolely10,700 squore feet. The lolol squore footoge ovoiloble thenin lhe new Goodnow librory will opproximcte 14,500. Thisligure conforms lo lhe minimum slondords for smoll librqriesesloblished by lhe Americon Librory Associolion.

It is well known lo librorions ond librory plonners thot lhereis never enough spoce in o smoll librory, Goodnow is ondolwoys will be o smoll librory. Becouse thisf igure is minimum,lhe Bureou of Librory Extension slrongly suggesled lhol onoddilionol 2,000 squore feet of spoce would be more occept-oble in meeting lhe needs of 1980 ond beyond. The Trustees,mindful of lhe finonciol impocl on the Town, would not occeplthis suggestion. The oddit¡on of 5ó0,000 would increose theprojecl cosl from the present S3l8,000toupwordsof 9400,000.

The Truslees hove plonned o new focilily on lhe histor¡cGoodnow sile os you hove direcled. We hove reloined forfulure generotions the chorm of o geniol ond groc¡ous postwhile ossuring thot oll our librory potrons will hove on ot-mosphere best suited for reoding ond study.

The fruslees, hoving followed o deliberote ond reosonobleopprooch for plonning ond finol construct¡on, hove ocled in orestroined ond conservolive monner ond ¡n lhe besl inlereslsof lhe Town. The conslruclion we hove proposed is more thonreslroined. lt is minimol, but the spoce it provides will beuseful for o long, long l¡me. lt is cleor lrom Sudbury's post

Finonce Commillee Reporf (Mr. Jomes Fisher) The FinonceCommiltee unonimously supporls lhis orlicle of the LibroryTruslees. We feel thot the need for lhe proposed odd¡tion hosbeen fully demonstroled ond thot lhe Trustees hove broughtthis project olong very well ¡n the lhree sleps over lhe loslilo yeors.

The Finonce Commillee ond lhe Town hove hod ompleopporlunily to iudge ond review lhe evolution of lhe libroryolon ol eoch sloge, ond we commend lhe Trustees for theirdiligent work lowords completion of this proiect.

The molion in lhe worronl is for 5318,100. The enlire proieclcost is esl¡moled by the orchilecl ot S334,ó00. s50,000 federoloid should be subtrocled. Also, lhe Town hos olreody votedond commilted g ló,500 in preliminory ond plonning moneyin l9ó9 ond ì970.

We ore being osked lo vole on S18,900 to be tronsferredfrom funds now ovoiloble lo lhe Town ond the remoinings250,000 to be borrowed, moking o lotol of 52ó8,.l00.

Borrowing S250,000 ot current roles would odd forly-sixcents lo the lox role the first yeor, declining lo lhirly-ninecenls in the f¡fth yeor. The Finonce Commillee hos recom-mended o five yeor lerm of borrowing in order lo soveopproximotely $35,000 in interest chorges which would beincurred if the borrowing were done over ten yeors,

The Finonce Commiltee usuolly likes lo hove firm bids oncosls before possing on o proposed expendilure for borrowing.Becouse ol the liming involved with the S50,000 federol gronl,the bids could not be solicited in time for lhis lown meet¡ng.The tolol proiecl cosl is bosed upon on orchitecl's estimole.However, we feel thot lhe desirobility of receiving federoloid, o substontiol porl of the proiect, together wilh our con-

lidence in lhe Truslees, will insure thot the ocluol bids comein ot lhe f igures given tonight.

We therefore recommend thot fovoroble oclion be lokenon lhis orlicle.

As of September 30, we hod o chonce to updole lhe esli-moles ond review them. We feel thol there is o cerloinomount of conlingency built into these funds to hondle theescololion between now ond the spring. We hope to b¡d th¡s

Eoord of Seleclmen Reporf (Mr. John Toft) Essentiolly, onoeriol survey will provide o set of mops ol the Town whichwill be occurole both in horizonlol ond in verticol informolion.

The Town would receive o single oeriol photogroph, o mo-soic of lhe entire Town which will be lo o scole of I inchequols ó00 feel, similor lo lhe lorge mop mode in l9ó5.

The Town would olso receive opproximolely I33 mops whichwould meosure 24by 36 inches eoch, hovingo scole of I inchequols 100 feet. The ploinimetric mops would show oll of lheroods in Town, fences, slone wolls, drivewoys, swomps, ponds,brooks, tree lines, buildings, sheds, elc., thot could be idenli-fied from oeriol photogrophs. These drowings would be in lheform of milor originols. Milor is o very sloble medium onddoes nol chonge dimension wilh moisture, heot or with lime.Therefore, it is guoronteed lhot 95 % of lhe poinls ore occuroleto wilhin l/401h of oninch,or2þfeet in reol lond dimensions.

Whol we hove ovoiloble todoy is o sel of Assessors' ploles.Most of lhese ore drown lo lhe scole of I inch equols 200feet. Some ore lo lhe scole of I inch equols 400 feet, Theseore odmitledly of morginol occurocy ond show only roodsond property lines.

The Boord of Assessors could use the mops to delerminelhe locolion of every building in lown ond to determine theexoct locolion of swomps ond brooks,

These mops would olso be useful for sludies on new roodlocotions, new school sites, pork ond recreotion oreos, ondconservolion oreos. Wilh respecl lo ony future lond purchosesby the Town, it would be very useful to know exoctly whotlhe situotion wos in oreo, contour, vegetolion, elc,

The Plonning Boord requiressubd¡v¡sion drowings to be done lo lhe some occuracy oslhese mops, so lhot os subdivisions ore built il would not benecessory lo re-phologroph them from lhe oir. The Townmops could be updoted w¡th the informolion required to beprovided by lhe subdivision surveying firm.

These mops ore olso needed to plon occurolely for droinogeond sewoge proiects. They ore useful in conneclion with es-toblishing conservolion eosemenls ond f loor ploin zones.

The S20,000 being requested is to permil us to do the oeriolphotogrophy work in lhe spring when the snow is gone ondlhe leoves ore off the lrees. The tolol cost of the proiect willbe obout s85,000.

Presenl mops ore inodequole for mony purposes, ondthe Town Engineer regulorly whittles owoy to provide infor-molion required by mony lown boords ond commitlees.

An oeriol survey conlour mop should do lhe entire jobin one fell swoop ond provide mops wilh oll the pieces tiedproperly logelher ond lo federol ond stote survey grids.Withoul these mops the Town Engineer will conlinue lo workon individuol pro¡ects for the Highwoy Commission,.the Plon-ning Boord, lhe Conservolion Commission, elc.

Aclon discovered thol on oeriol survey such os lhis woson essenliol preliminory step in their sewoge study.

Withoul your fovoroble vote lhis evening, lhe ConservolionCommission will ogoin request funds to conlinue lheir lopo-grophic survey of our wellonds ot oround S2,000 per lineolmile.

Nole lhol lhis orticle provides initiol funds to permit pre-

liminory work ond timely oeriol photogrophy. A fovoroblevole now, wh¡ch we unonimously recommend, commits lheTown every woy except legolly lo vole lhe bolonce of lhesefunds ol our nexl lown meeting.

Conservofiori Cornmission Reporl: (Mr. Fronk Morrison) TheConservolion Commissiõn r-rrges you lo supporl lhis orticle.Our primory inleresl in lhis oeriol survey proiecl is for lhepurpose of estoblishing boundories in lhe flood ploin olonglhe wolerwoys of the Town so lhol suiloble omendmenls tothe Flood Ploin Zoning By.low con be proposed os soon ospossible.

ïhere ore opproximolely sixty-one miles of rivers ondslreoms in lhe Town. Of lhistotol,overy smoll ló% is present-ly prolected by the omended Flood PloinZoningBy-low possedot lhe 1970 Annuol fown Meeting. This consists of 5.5 milesof the Sudbury River, two miles of Wosh Brook ond hvo milesof Pontry Brook. An oddit¡onol 5.5 miles ore prolected byexisl¡ng eosements of lhe foct lhol lhey lie in open spoceo reos.

ïhis yeor we photogrophed two miles of Hop Brook fromDutlon Rood to the Post Rood for o cost of obout s4,000 bythe oulhority which wos gtonled to lhe Conservotion Com.mission under Article 4ó of the Annuol Town Meeling loslspring. We hope thot much of this flood ploin oreo will bereody for inclusion in the By-low by fie lgZl Town Meetingnext April.

A survey such os lhis conducted by the Commission for lhespecific purpose of defining flood ploin boundories includesonly lhe oreo 1,000 feel on eilhersideof the streom or wofer-woy. Therefore, it is of liltle or no use to lhe Town for onyolher engineering purpose.

The oreos of inleresl to lhe Commission ore nol connecled,but spreod oll over the mop. Doing oeriol surveys of lheseoreos individuolly is much more expensive per mile since ogreol deol more oreq is octuolly photogrophed thon we use.Doing oll the oreos of inleresl to the Commission in lhisfoshion could cost in the order of 598,000, whereos lhe lotolcost for doing lhe whole town is eslimoled ot 58j,000 or less.

lf lhis orlicle is disopproved by lhe Town, os lhe FinonceCommittee optly points out, lhe Commission will still feel itneceisory lo go before lhe Town ot the l97l Annuol TownMeeting to osk for opproximotely 522,000 to do the obsolutebore minimum of survey necessory to define the flood ploinsolong lhe molor wolerwoys. These would cover only DudleyBrook, Allowonce Brook, Minewoy Brook ond lhe resl of HopBrook.

lf you do no, vole lhis, ond you disopprove ony furlherrequesls lhe Conservolion Commission mighl hove in thefuture, it is very unlíkely thot ony of these oieos would everbe odded to the flood ploin zone. ltwill be necessory for lheCommission lo resorl lo lhe slow, tedious, cumbersome processof getting conservolion eosemenls in lhese oreos if lhey oreto be protecled ot oll.

The proposed survey will moke it possible to complete ourplons for flood ploin definition ot o lower price thon if doneindependently ond, ol the some lime, give the Town on in-voluoble lool for future plonning ond engineering. lt will mokepossible greorer knowledge oboul lhe Town ond ils open spoceossets. lt will ossisl lhe Commission, os well os lhe Pork ondRecreolion Commission, in providing you with prolecled openspoce ond multiple use oreos,

COMMITTEE ON

TOWN ADMINISTRATION

After fovoroble oction ot the ì970 AnnuolTown Meeting on f¡ve CTA orticles designedto better regulote the conduct of Town Meeþings, the Committee decided to disconlinuefor the time being its work in lhis oreo.Recently there hos been much questioningof the efficocy of the open town meetingform of government. lt hos some obviousdisodvontoges. ll tokes o lot of time, ondottendonce ¡s highly vorioble. Emotions ondtheotrics sometimes ploy too big o role.The voter is not olwoys well informed. The

meeting is susceptible to porliomentorymoneuvering, deloy, confusion, ond hostycloture. On the other hond, it gives theoveroge citizen on octive role in his govern-ment. The outcome is seldom bod. The otherlegislotive form ovoiloble to us - repre-sentolive town meeting - hos not beenproven to be vostly superior in terms ofwisdom. Nevertheless, the CTA recognizesthot the doys of the open town meetingmoy be numbered. The holl is no longerlorge enough to occommodote oll whowould like to porticipote. As this situotiongets worse through increoses in populotion,representotive town meeting will becomeinevitoble.

During 1970 the CTA devoted most of itstime ond efforts to the Home Rule Pro-cedures Act of l9óó. This oct enobles o

town to goin greoter freedom in deolingwith locol offoirs by orgonizing itself undero Chorter. The Act spells out procedureswhereby o town elects o speciol nine-moncommission to drofl o Chorter within lenmonths. A Chorter would provide o com-poct codificotion in one constilution lypedocument of oll lows offecting o town, ondwould eliminote the troditionol petitions tothe Generol Courl for speciol legislotion.A town without o Chorter remoins subiectto the whims of the Stote Legisloture,where-os o Chorter bestows constitutionol stotus.

The CTA fomiliorized itself w¡th the HomeRule Procedures Act, ond much of the workthot hos been done on town Chorters here,in other towns, ond by the Bureou of Gov-ernment Reseorch of the University of Mos-sochusetts, ond the Bureou of Public Affoirsot Boston College. The Chorter Study Com-

mittee oppointed in 1967 wos interviewed.It is generolly ocknowledged thot estoblish-ment of o Chorter should be occomponiedby revisions in ond modernizotion of o

town's government. The CTA concluded lhotlhe simultoneous proposol of chonge ondChorter would be politlcolly unwise becousechonges ore olwoys controversiol ond couldobscure the benefits of Chorter ond leodto its defeot. Accordingly, the CTA

decided thot os mony of the chonges ospossible should be mode in odvonce. Also,becouse of the time limits imposed on Chor-ter Commissions, it wos cleor thol the CTAshould corry out some of the necessory pre-liminory work includlng publicity of the con-cepts ond mechonisms of governmentol re-orgonizotion ond Chorter writing. The Com-mittee decided to concentrote on the follow-ing four oreos:

(l) The conversion of elective offices tooppointive, wherever oppropriote ondlegolly permissible;

(2) The eliminotion of defunct committeesond boords;

(3) The compilotion of oll speciol ond gen-erol ocls of the Stote Legisloture wh ichopply to Sudbury; ond

(4) A study of the public works in the lownincluding the Woter District.

The CTA feels thot good government de-monds thot elective offices be mointoinedonly in those coses where the voter re-quires o direct control over the personholding the office. ln generol, elective of-fices ore oppropriote only where policy ismode, ond not where o purely technicolfunction is performed or where speciol pro-fessionol quolificotions ore required. The

CTA discussed the odvisobility of mokingthe following offices oppointive: Boord ofAssessors, Collector of Toxes, Treosurer,Constobles. lt will recommend to the ì971Annuol Town Meeting thot the lotler threebe mode oppointive ond thot the Boord ofAssessors remoin eleclive.

Another CTA orticle will seek to eliminotethe Mosquito Control Committee. Additionolhouse cleoning in this oreo will be forth-coming.

22t

An eorlier Chorler Study Committee hoddone some work ¡n finding references tospeciol octs thot opply to the Town of Sud-bury. The CTA ot the 1971 Annuol TownMeeting will seek funds to finish this work,to compile the octs ond to do the some forthe Generol Acts occepted by the Town.Once this work is completed, the CTA in-tends to submit orticles wh¡ch would el¡m¡-note oll obsolete, unnecessory or no longeropplicoble octs. Hopefully when this ís doneit will be o simple motter to f¡nd out exoctlyhow Sudbury is constituted, ond the workof ony future Chorter Commission will beimmeosu robly simplified.

The CTA conducted o number of heoringsin the generol qreo of Public Works Or-gonizotion to try to determine if there wereobvious woys in which the presenl structurecould be mod¡fied eilher lo ochieve greotereconomy ond efficiency, or responsiveness

to the voters. The CTA met with the boordsconcerned-the Woter District, the HighwoyCommission, the Town Engineer, the Select-men. ïhe Committee benefitted in this fromthe study it hod done in l9ó8 on the High-woy Commission ond from the work ofseverol other committees in this generoloreo such os the Sudbury Woter DistrictStudy Committee. lt wos determined thot todo o thorough cost effective onolysis ofPublic Works ond the Woter District wouldrequire outside professionol help. lt wosdetermined through discussions with theSelectmen ond others thot the presentpoliti-col otmosphere is not conductive to such oproposition. Further work in this oreo iscontemploted during l97l .

The gool of the CTA ¡s to strive for re-sponsive, efficient, ond economicol govern-ment. Suggestions or help from the towns-people ore olwoys welcome.

Reosons for modifi-cotion include:

tinuíng policy of the Conservalîon Commis-sion.

l. Previously unidenlified londs of con-servotion volue being offered for sole.

2. Designoted londs being developed forsome non-compotible uses (housing, in-d ustry).

3. Owners' unwillingness to sell desig-noted lond to the Town.

4. lnobility to reoch o mutuolly occep-toble price for purchose.

5. Unwillingness of Town Meeting to op-prove o prospeclive purchose.

ó. Lock of funds lo purchose londs.

The meons by which these londs moy bebrought under the iurisdiction of lhe Con-servotion Commission ore discussed below.Not oll of them involve purchose, thoughpurchose is the surestond most likely methodof protecling lorge oreos.

Zoning is the leost permonent meons ofpreservotion os it con be chonged by otwo-thirds vote of Town Meeting. Conser-voncy ond Floodploin Zone by-lows conrestrict the owner of the lond from cerloinuses of his lond. The londowner moy op-peol certoin coses. Approximotely 2,000ocres in Sudbury ore presently under Flood-ploin Zoning. This type of protection is use-ful to preserve streoms ond morshlond fromfilling or olherwise chonging ils woter-hold-ing copocity. Certoin portions of P.2, P.6,P.7, P.ll lend themselves to lhis form ofprotection.

Conservolion Restriclion (prev iouslyknown os eosement) protecls the lond ¡n itsnotu ro I stote permonently by restricïing whotlhe owner or subsequent owners con do onthe lond. The lond does not chonge titleond remoins o port of the totol ocreoge.Restrictions qre generolly useful in preserv-ing strips of lond olong o streqm bed orexisling troils (greenwoys). The londownerwho gives o reslriction lo the Town is securein the knowledge thot on oreo deor to hisheort will never chonge ond- obtoins toxodvontoges qs well.

Obtoin Tiele by gifl, purchose or eminenldomoin. This is the most desiroble meqnsof preserving the noturol resources onddeveloping the recreotionol polenliol of o

piece of lond. When the Town purchosesthe lond, public occess is guoronleed. lflhe ocquisition is mode with Town Meetingopprovol, the Town moy be eligible for upto75% reimbursement (50% Stote Self-HelpFunds ond 25% Federol HUD or BOR Funds).The Town Conservotion Fund, towhich yeorlyoppropriotions hove been gronled unon-imously by Town Meeting, is ovoiloble forsuch purchoses.

PTANNING BOARD

The Plonning Boord in l970lost two mem-bers who were moinstoys for o numberof yeors. Porker Albee, o member since1962, resigned in l9ó9. Bob Wellmon, omember since 1964, decided not to seekre-election. Porker's experience ond his rop-port with the mony businessmen ond lond-owners of the Town, will be missed by theBoord. Bob's bockground os o businessmon,with vost construction ond building experi-ence, wos involuoble to the Boord ondlhe Town. The ultimote success of Sudbury'slengthy bottle to put the Sudbury RiverVolley Edison high-tension line under-ground is lorgely o result of Bob's effortsover ì0 yeors. Jone Gillespie ond PoulMcNolly hove filled lhese two voconciesond hove contributed considerobly to ouroctivities this yeor.

Th e econom ic recession, wh ich existedthroughout the notion during ì970, olsohos been opporent in Sudbury. Buildingpermits for new homes, which stood of ló0through November l9ó9, dropped to I I I

for the some period this yeor. The effectsof the economic conditions were seen morein whot hos nol hoppened in the oreo ofcommerciol growth. Neither the North Sud-bury Shopping Center nor the SudburyCenter proiects hove been storted. Threenew subdivisions were opproved in 1970tololling only 37 new lots. This is consider-obly less thon the 122 lots in opprovedsubd¡visions in ì9ó9.

Since lost yeor's report wos written, thePlonning Boord hos oppointed two sub-commiltees. The Sudbury Center Plo.nningCommiltee hos been concerned with oll

ospects of the Town Center's future includ-ing historic preservotion, troffic problems,lown focilities, school exponsion ond schoolbus porking. ln 1970, The Route 20 StudyCommittee, composed of businessmen, resi-dentiol owners ond others with speciolquol-Ìficotions, begon their tosk of consideringthe zoning, troffic, business ond oestheticospects of Route 20 ond whot the Townmight do to improve the oreo for the bene-fit of oll segments of the Town.

ln beginning these studies by our sub-committees, lhe Boord recognized monyother oreos thol need similor ottention.Alternotive zoning opprooches, such oscluster zoning, plonned unit developmentzoning, ond commerciol/residentiol tronsi-lionol zoning must be evoluoted. Multiple-unit zoning; the "snob" zoning billi how tohove oportments serve the needs of ourpeople yet ovoid the pitfolls of some of ourneighboring towns ore o few of the inter-reloled issues wh¡ch need ottention.

To get to those problems foster ond toollow us to hove specific sludies mode un-der our direction, the Boord is requestingfunds to retoin o plonning firm on o con-tinuing port-time bosis. Sudbury's size ondgrowth rote do not iustify o full-time pro-fessionol plonning stoff, butwe require somesupplementory professionol ossistonce.

All members of the Boord oppreciote thecooperotion of the mony boords, com-mittees, town off¡ciols ond citizens withwhom we hove worked over the post yeor.Our speciol thonks to Estelle Wellmon, ours ecreto ry.

SUDBURY CENTER

PTANNING COMMITTEE

We were formed on Jonuory Sth of thisyeor os o subcommittee of the PlonningBoqrd. There were short-term problems thotneeded solutions: droinoge in the Town-owned lond oround the Noyes School; ondthe problem of stoff porking, bus loodingof children, ond recreotionol f¡elds for theimpending oddition to' Noyes. Atlendontto these were the questions of whol to dowith the brush ond stump dump, the over-night bus porking oreo, ond the firemen'sproclice oreo. Longer-ronge questionswhichthe Committee wos osked to consider per-toin to troffic flow'ond congestion in theCenler - whether lhereshould be by-posses,ond possible lond"ocquisition policies.

The short-term problems occupied ourenergies for most of the yeor. We recom-mended thqt on orticle on lowering the cul-vert lo droin the oreo be dropped from theWorront since il hod been determined bythe Stote thot the present leoching f¡eldsof the school would be odequote. We prod-ded for the removol of two ilems¡ the brushond slump dump, wh¡ch hos been movedto Sond H¡ll; ond the firemen's procliceoreo, which hos been portiolly dismontledond returned to the control of the SchoolCommittee.

We hove olso generoted loyouts thotwould occomplish porking for the increqsedstoff ot Noyes, ond the looding of childrenon ond off their buses ot Noyes.ltis evidentthot the overnight bus porking oreo mustbe moved in order to provide room forrecreotionol fields. We ore exploring thefeosibility of utilizing the Town-owned londeosl of the Noyes School.

During the lolter monlhs of the yeqr, wedevoled increosing oltention to potentiollong-term solutions to lroffic congestion inthe Center. Prior troffic counts hove beenobloined ond new ones ore under woy.ln qddition, the Committee hos recommend-ed thot full conlrol troffic lights be instolledof the Center os o solulion to present trofficcongestion.

The Committee reported twice formollyin Februory ond September lo the PlonningBoord ond the Seleclmen. Besides the lopicsdescribed obove, recommendotions weremode thot oddit¡onol lond be ocquired inthe immediole Cenler, thot oll wires possingthrough the Center be ploced underground,ond thot o sign to the Woyside lnnbe ploced in the Center.
